Valentine Vessel
13 × 8 × 4 / MADE TO ORDER
The Valentine Vessel is our ode to one of our biggest inspirations -- the ceramicist, set designer, and interior architect Valentine Schlegel. The three-pronged necks allow for a variety of sizes of stems -- VS would have filled with dramatic tulips or lilies -- but we also love this piece standing on its own.
Materials: Cast white stoneware, black underglaze, slightly textured matte black glaze.
*Please note that a small mark may show on the tip of the Valentine where we place a stilt to support the top of the vessel from sinking during firing.
