Full description
Inspired by nature and my love of patterns, this cute bud vase makes a pretty gift for any lover of handmade items.
I’ve thrown this vase on the wheel in stoneware clay. It’s a durable, versatile and unique keepsake item. The hand carved and painted design incorporates 2 flower leaf stems with floating abstract seed heads in happy shades of pinky red, yellow & green. There’s also a little ladybird (ladybug). Being handmade, each item I make differs slightly, none are ever identical.
How I made it:
There are many steps to making pottery, I’ll miss a few, but essentially, once I’ve thrown the piece on the wheel & it’s hardened, I then carve the outlines of the design with a very thin needle. These lines are infilled with dark underglaze before the first kiln firing. I then paint the design before dipping in clear glaze and fire it again, to a higher, stoneware temperature.
- Measurements: height approx 11cm

Packaging:
