These vertical pieces are constructed in the most straightforward way, with as much of the form being shaped on the wheel with little over correction on the shape later on. The subtle rim at the bottom of the main vessel is formed through the trimming process, and instead of loping it off, I left it and it becomes one of those small poetries found in a considered handmade piece.
Florals are inspired by dahlia blooms, the stems intertwined and wrapping around the vase. Matte turquoise serves as a background and the interior is glazed in a dark glossy umber.
