Porcelain Pottery Vase with Chrysanthemum Flowers
A lovely vase whose shape suggests the art deco movement. I made this out of a white porcelain clay body. I threw it on the potter's wheel, trimmed the bottom with a foot ring so the bottom is glazed as well. The exterior decoration is a transfer technique which is a silkscreening technique in black. The patterns are sealed permanently into the clay by the glazing process. A clear glaze is over the entire exterior of the piece. A purple liner glaze cheers you up.
Please appreciate the slight variations and imperfections that are the signs of hand made pottery. This pot is approximately8.5" tall x 5" wide. Signed "Sullivan, Canada" on the bottom.
