The rim is uneven and lightly scalloped, with a few drips of glaze gathered at the lip. Two flat, ribbon-like handles loop downward from the shoulders, one broader and more dramatic than the other, giving the silhouette an asymmetrical, almost whimsical presence. The piece rests on a flared, slightly rolled foot. A creamy white glaze covers the body in a matte, chalky finish, and visible tool marks and pinched textures reveal the hand of the maker.

Compact yet full of character, the vase makes a charming accent on a shelf, mantel, console, or coffee table, or a quiet companion on a bedside table or windowsill. It sits naturally within Organic Modern, Mid-Century Modern, Wabi-Sabi, Japandi, and Contemporary interiors, and pairs well with raw wood, plaster, linen, and other handmade ceramics. To care for it, dust with a soft dry cloth and wipe the glaze gently with a lightly dampened cloth, avoiding abrasive cleaners. Because the form is irregular and the handles are slender, lift it by the base rather than the handles. The piece measures 6.5 inches wide, 5.5 inches deep, and 6.75 inches high.

Presented in very good condition, the vase has a consistent glaze with a natural patina appropriate to its age. Minor surface irregularities and slight glaze variations are present, as is typical of handcrafted ceramics. It is structurally sound, with no visible chips or cracks. Please review the photographs closely, as they form part of the condition report. Bring home this endearing, sculptural vessel and inquire today to make it yours. See less
