This original vintage watercolor by Welsh artist Pandora Allin, entitled “Blue Pot,” feels strikingly contemporary in its execution. Wide, confident brush strokes define the form, allowing pigment and movement to carry as much weight as subject. The blue itself is expressive rather than delicate — layered, alive, unapologetically modern.

And yet, it is housed within an oak Victorian frame.

The juxtaposition is wonderful. The frame, with its warm tone and subtle age, carries the weight of the 19th century — steady, grounded, traditional. Inside it, Allin’s brushwork feels fresh and immediate. The pairing creates tension in the best possible way: contemporary art embraced by historic craftsmanship. It is a conversation between eras.

The composition is simple — a pot rendered with intention — but simplicity here is strength. The focus remains on color, texture, and the artist’s hand. There is no overworking, no fuss. Just form and feeling.

Hand selected in England and imported with care, “Blue Pot” is a piece that bridges old and new effortlessly. It would sit beautifully in a layered interior — above a mantel, in a kitchen, or within a collected gallery wall — bringing with it both modern energy and timeworn soul. See less
