These miniature Bud Vases are designed as if a three dimensional, free standing painting.
Inspired by a stretch of local landscape, that is easily accessed, I have used a palette of Autumnal colored glazes to evoke the feeling of a walk along the Scottish Coastline in the latter and early part of the year.
Each one thrown with the same weight of clay, but each one unique, the shapes based on a collection of old ceramic ink bottles that I have.
Just the right size to fit on a mantle piece or brighten a small space and fill with a few flowers, leaves or seed heads from the garden or found outside dependent on the season, but equally attractive when empty.
Each one stamped with my makers mork on the bottom edge.

Using an electric free Potter's Kick Wheel, I have thrown this trio of miniature vases, which have all been made with the same weight of clay, but each one unique.
After leaving to dry to a leather hard state, the bases are given a quick trim then placed in the kiln for a first kiln firing.
Glazing can then begin, adding on layers of oxides, coloured and clear glazes over bands of alternating wax resist, to create and evoke a feeling of land and sky.
The wax will quickly burn away during the vases high temperature glaze firing.
This trio set of Bud Vases all approx measure 4.5 to 5 cm at the base, a height of approx 5.7 to 6 cm.
