Dark Textured Round Vase

$80.00
Sold Out
This vase is ideal for those who love texture! This piece was thrown first as a cylinder and then I added vertical lines to it using a scoring tool, carefully scratching upward along the wet clay surface. After the lines were added, I then rounded it into a more spherical shape, which further deepened the scoring lines on the outside. After undergoing that first round of texture, this piece got a couple of thick coats of glaze, which yielded a very thick dripping texture on the outside of this piece!

Upon closer examination of this vase, it features very delicate and decisive lines throughout its form and keeps the eye moving as well as provides many small areas to rest and focus on. There are many spots in which the two different glazed met and mixed to make unique color combinations with each other.

This piece is glazed both inside and out and it completely food safe.

As the environment is a large portion of the inspiration in my work, it is also on the forefront of my mind when considering shipping, which is why I make sure to use 100% recyclable materials. The packing tape is water activated, which creates a permanent seal to the box and helps reduce the amount of tape I use (and since the tape is 100% recyclable/biodegradable, it can be recycled with the box itself!). I use a thermal printer to print out my shipping labels (using no ink cartridges) and the backing of the labels are also recyclable. Lastly, although I double-box my items to ensure they arrive to you safely, the boxes, paper and packing materials are 100% recyclable/reused from post-consumer products!

Along with the wonderfully grounding feeling of experiencing a handmade object, I feel that it is also my responsibility as an artist and a maker to provide you with piece of mind into the steps I've taken to reduce the amount of waste produced from my shop. The Earth provides us with marvel and beauty and I believe that through measures such as these, we get a little bit closer to experiencing our own personal fifth season.

Thank you very much for having a look at this unique piece!

If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me.

Warmly,
