Abstract Daisy Flower Bud Vase

Description

Handmade Abstract Daisy Flower Bud Vase

This small buttery cream coloured ceramic bud vase is handmade by me in my garden studio in Derbyshire. I threw it on the potter’s wheel using stoneware clay with a rounded belly shape, then decorated it with abstract daisy and seed motifs. I love combining inspirations from the nature on my doorstep with my love of patterns.

The vase is finished inside and out with a glossy clear glaze so it’s watertight and durable. The base is flat and stamped with my maker’s mark.

Just right for a few thin stems, like sweet peas, lavender, or a small posy freshly picked from the garden.

To create the surface design, I draw the outlines with a needle, lightly scoring the surface of the clay. I then infill the lines with a dark wash before painting the white and yellow petals and seeds after the first kiln firing. Each pot goes through 2 firings to finish it.

Packaging:
Your vase will be wrapped in tissue paper first, then carefully packed using recyclable materials wherever possible. I never buy plastic packaging or tapes. Any plastic based packaging in your parcel is being reused, I’m trying to keep as plastic-free as possible.
