My Parents were true fans of Artist Sascha Brastoff. They collected so many pieces of his art from Ceramic Pottery to Resin Animals. All of it was purchased in the 60’s and immediately put on display behind glass to avoid exposure to heat, moisture, smoke, sunlight. They are in Excellent if not MINT Condition, with proper care they can continue to look like this for many decades to come.I have always been captured by the beauty of these animals, even as a small child. Now I am in my 60’s and have nobody to pass them down to. I am hoping somebody will find as much delight in them as they have given me and my family for generations. This is a Resin Bear Couple made in gorgeous Topaz, rich tones of Autumn, reminds me of Honey (ironic?)Forsight Bear measures 101/2″ x 5″ x 4″Hindsight Bear measures 8″ x 4″ x 4″Both Hand signed on bottom by Artist.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:Sascha Brastoff (1917-1993) was a performer, designer, and the founder of a successful production ceramics factory and line that operated in Los Angeles, California, from c.1946 – 1962. Born Samuel Brostofsky in Cleveland, Ohio in 1917, Sascha Brastoff immersed himself in the arts from a young age. Ballet classes, performing arts school, ceramics, and later jobs such as the window display creator for Macy’s in New York City served as creative outlets for Brastoff. It was not surprising that while serving in the U.S. Air Force during WWII, Brastoff worked as a designer and entertainer, conceiving his famous drag performance identity “GI Carmen Miranda.” After returning from his service in the Air Force, Brastoff did brief stint for 20th Century Fox Studios as a costume designer, working with stars such as Betty Grabel and yes, Carmen Miranda. Despite his success, he left his contract to focus on his ceramics business. As a child in Cleveland, Brastoff had taken an interest in ceramics at a young age, painting his family’s own dinner plates. In New York City while creating window displays, Brastoff had belonged to a ceramic studio in Greenwich Village called the Clay Club. Forming his own company with the support of his life partner Howard Shoup and the backing of Winthrope B. Rockafeller was a natural decision to make. As the company grew, a massive factory and showroom designed by A. Quincy Jones and Frederick Emmons was built on West Olympic Boulevard in West Los Angeles in 1953. At its height, Brastoff had around 100 ceramicists and decorators working for him. The productionware lines included dinnerware sets, vases, decorative plates, figurines and more. The wide range of series show Brastoff’s influences: theater and performance, futurism and abstraction, and the stylistic tastes of a midcentury Los Angeles. As I’ve transitioned to interning in AMOCA’s collections department, I have been able to handle several of Brastoff’s vases from his Original Abstract series, which features a horizontal stripe pattern of white, black, and various types of brown, overlaid with a crazing effect. Lesser known are Brastoff’s more erotic platters, which are extremely difficult to find images of online. The leading biography and catalogue on Brastoff fails to mention them as well, and leaves out Brastoff’s identity as a gay man. Oftentimes Howard Shoup is mentioned in passing as an Air Force friend of Brastoff’s, but rarely as Brastoff’s partner whom he lived with for most of his life. It is interesting how Brastoff’s act as Carmen Miranda was applauded while in the Air Force because it was entertaining, but how his identity is brushed off when it involved other periods in his life, such as his ceramic business. Regardless, Sascha Brastoff was a natural born performer and artist who will be remembered and loved for his influential ceramics created right here in Los Angeles.
