This is the most difficult vase I have ever made, great fun, but time consuming. It is also stricktly speaking a 2nd, as the joints between the main body and the base and neck developed suface cracks at the joints, they are stable and have no effect on the function of the item, but are visible on close inspection, so please study the pictures carefully and ask if you have any questions. As with all my pieces the pattern is carved freehand to fit the item so can never be exactly duplicated. All my pieces are created individually by me in my home studio. I work in stoneware, so items are pretty tough, food & dishwasher safe. 5cm deep, 20cm wide, 25cm high.
