Raku Pottery Vase

An 8-inch crackle glaze pottery vase with a tall, softly tapered form and a richly varied surface that gives the piece depth from every angle. The crackled finish creates a network of fine lines across the glaze, emphasizing the handmade character of the vessel and giving it an aged, almost weathered quality. At 8 inches tall, it has enough presence to stand alone as a sculptural object while still working beautifully with a small arrangement of stems.
