use

a question we are often asked in our studio is

“what do you use it for"?

(no doubt we cannot always fault them for asking!)

~ cactus vessel . . . !!! - by ceramic matters~

does it have to have a function?

it might be an inspiration of fantasy or aesthetically pleasing.

~ aloe leaf platter - by ceramic matters~

when invited for lunch, we might take a bottle of wine and

a bunch of flowers.

the typical frantic hunt for a vase somewhere in the depths of a kitchen cupboard makes me wonder;

does anybody have vases they are proud of?

it is always packed out of sight . . .

the rose thorn pot

shape based on the root ball, thorns and stem of a plant

you might want to add the flower.

(i'm so not arriving with a whole bunch of flowers)

if we designed a range of vases with no bottoms

- an independent statement of form and structure in itself -

would it be acceptable?
