A beautiful Feeile style vase with an all over crystalline glaze in pale shades of oxblood and gray green by contemporary ceramics artist Richard Freiwald.

RICHARD FREIWALD received his B.A. from Montclair State University and his M.F.A. from Rutgers, Mason Gross School for the Arts. He began teaching in 1980, and has taught at numerous Universities. He is currently a long term faculty member of The Pingry School in Somerset County, New Jersey, and says about his experience there:

"For me, teaching is communicating to a new generation the rediscovery and reinvention of
visual media and concepts through mentoring and building self-expression in my students. I infuse my passion, sense of adventure and self-realization through shared experiences in the studio."

Richard has been the recipient of many honors including The National Endowment for the Arts and The Council for Basic Education Grant; for the introduction of interdisciplinary teaching in Art and Science and The Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation Grant for consistently having the highest quality of student works to be accepted into The Morris Museum. He has held three endowed teaching chairs over the years, and his work has been widely-exhibited in New Jersey and New York and is held in numerous private collections around the world.

Much of Richard's work can be divided into three broad categories of 'social realism', 'modern/experimental', and a thing that can perhaps best be described as 'neo-jugenstil' in which he embraces a decidedly art nouveau aesthetic that is often accentuated and heightened by crossover sculptural themes rooted not only in nature, but in current affairs, fantasy, and mythology, and often made transcendent through the application of an astounding variety of his own experimental glazes. It is where these broad categories of work intersect, overlap, and blend that his most arresting visions are realized. Freiwald is as much a tecnician as he is an artist who is driven to distraction by the many technical challenges involved in the creation of his work. glaze chemistry, firing schedules, and the difficulty of many of his forms all make demands on the process and are all evident in the completed work.

The artist says that he sometimes approaches his work like a jazz musician who embraces uncharted territory where ideas believed to be the most absurd ultimately lead to the greatest successes. His best pieces reveal his humanity and love for art and all things. It is the act of communication through a visual, medium reflecting the spirit moving within that drives his passion to inspire and bring meaning to existence.

“There is nothing quite like it when I am working on a piece, I feel truly energized”. My passion for this work requires well-designed concepts to be meticulously crafted to the highest standards and to the best of my abilities. I am inspired by visceral nature and fantasy. My art pottery pieces rely on emotional intensities, sometimes based on the brutality and beauty found in nature and imagination. The forms are hand thrown or sculpted and the glazes are full of texture and character. I employ sintered 'born-of-the-ashes' glazes, including my phoenix iridized paste lustre, fractured earth, glaciation, glass, crater, and etched matte crystalline. Layered underglaze variations used in a painterly fashion adds depth and interest to the timeless beauty. My artworks are deeply rooted in tradition. I teach, study and love all styles of art including Jugendstil, Symbolist, Secession, Expressionism and Fantastic Mythology. My introspective searching for unknown horizons is a constant life journey as I am always welcoming the unknown and new. It is the quintessence; the resulting art pottery born of earth, fire, water, and air that becomes transcendent and takes on a life of its own.

Game changer
Color: Black
This kitchen sink organizer has been a game changer for my countertop! It’s sturdy, well-made, and fits perfectly next to my sink. The multiple compartments are ideal for keeping sponges, scrub brushes, dish soap, and even scrub pads neatly organized and within reach. I was able to clear up so much clutter around my sink area it looks so much cleaner and more functional now. I love the rust-proof design and the drainage holes on the bottom that keep everything dry instead of sitting in water.

Perfect Size and Highly Practical
Color: Black
This sink organizer with sponge and brush holder is the size I was looking for. The non-slip, drain-free base keeps everything dry and in place. Having my sponges and brushes within easy reach makes the sink area much more organized, and it fits perfectly without taking up too much space I like the quality. It has genuinely made my kitchen feel tidier and more efficient.

Very good quality
Color: Black
It is easy to assemble and works great with my soap, sponge and scrub brush. And it stands stable on the counter beside the faucet. I think the materials used are of good quality and should last a long time.

Works Good!
Color: Grey
I was concerned it was going to be too small, especially since the tall portion design doesn't allow you to hang on the ourside....But I have a very nice glass container of dish detergent in it, a bottle of hand soap, and the tall container for taller brushes, straw cleaners, etc. It fits everything pretty well. Wouldn't be able to add a sponge to it, but I have a holder with suction cups on the inside of my sink for the sponge and keeps it out of sight, so it works for me. But if you have a stuff at your sink, it probably wouldn't. Though if you like the design (which is very nice), you could always use two, one on each side of the faucet. I also returned one because even though the extra container could hang on the outside, it was short enough and everything kept falling out of it. This taller one works much better...but again, it too is somewhat limited on size and storage. I much prefer everything organized and in its place, and this provides that.
