Porcelain Pottery Vase with Black birds and grapes Large/Green Liner
A new vase shape that suggests the 1960's. Very heavy to balance tall blooms. This piece has a very slight lean, I have left it in the photo.
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 of birds and grapes. The patterns are sealed permanently into the clay by the glazing process. A clear glaze is over the exterior, the interior is a lovely vibrant green glaze.
Please appreciate the slight variations and imperfections that are the signs of hand made pottery. This pot is approximately 6.75" tall x 4" wide(exterior measurement). Signed "Sullivan, Canada" on the bottom.
