vase with molded shoulder portion

h 28cm

a mallet-shaped vase made in three sections.
the shoulder portion with its raised lines was
made in a clay mold, a technique I observed
in Pakistan, where bisque-fired waterjars
are made in the same way.
this section was attached to the cylindrical,
untrimmed base and the seperately thrown
neck was added in a third step.
makes a wonderful container for long-stemmed
flowers or a single twig
