Bio:
Kähler’s stoneware production of the 1930s is noted for its experimental glaze techniques and strong decorative character. The cow horn technique was used to produce dynamic, almost marbled surfaces, where the movement of the glaze became an integral part of the vessel’s visual expression. These works exemplify a period in which craftsmanship, material awareness, and decorative impact were closely intertwined.
