Gentle Clouds Ceramic Vase in Slate

Our Gentle Clouds Vase is made by artist Marie-Pierre Py in a community maker space in Brattleboro Vermont. The artist, founder of West-Running Brook Ceramics, hand-throws each vase and then carves the cloud detail into the base of the vase, which is then painted with an underglaze. The final vase is then glazed again in a double-glaze process. Perfect for a farmer's market bouquet or those wild-flowers picked on a nature walk. A Craftspring exclusive, the Gentle Clouds Vase is one of our favorite gifts this holiday season. Please note that each vase is individually hand-thrown and each vase varies slightly in form and size.
