Try-out Collection
Elana the bud vase is part of a small try out collection in which I have explored decorating with underglaze (instead of clay slib, which I usually work with). The pieces of this collection have some characteristics that differ from the usual ones such as an un-colored bottom and slightly visible crackles in the transparent glaze. The crackles are caused by the high temperatures the pieces are fired in and give them a bit of an 'ícy' structure (see images).  


IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE BUD VASES:
The bud vases have a long, silly, quirky postures which gives them character but also makes them fragile! It is recommended to place the vase at a spot that is wind-free and has a low risk of being pushed over.
