Nan Kirstein Creepy Lady Face Pottery Creamer & Sugar Set, Bucks County PA
This eerie yet elegant Nan Kirstein (Carversville, Bucks County, PA) pottery set includes a lidded sugar jar and matching creamer, each hand-thrown and finished in a soft white glaze. The sculptural female faces—pale, wide-eyed, and eerily expressive. Their hair is modeled in high relief, lending an uncanny Art Nouveau-meets-ghost-story presence. The creamer’s handle forms the back of a woman’s head, her hair streaming down the body like roots or tendrils; the sugar’s domed lid rises into a bust with hauntingly serene eyes. Very rare and unique works.
Perfect for collectors who favor beautifully unsettling art pottery, witchy home décor, the Victorianesque, dark cottagecore, and general fans of the Oddities
