Handmade Tall Cylindrical Ribbed Vase

Handcrafted in New York, this sculptural stoneware vase features roughly textured ribbing around the full perimeter of the piece. The variegated glaze color comes from application of white clay slip over the brown clay body of the vase to create the striping effect. The organic texture combined with the tall cylinder form is reminiscent of Birch bark. Hand-built and kiln-fired, every vase is one of a kind and part of a small series by ceramic artist Nancy Hirschmann.
