Description: This beautiful vase, created by Australian artist Trevor Pitt, features a stunning blue and gold lava glaze that evokes images of the sea foam and waves of Australia's coastline. The textured finish adds a unique element to the piece, while the 5" height and 4.5" width make it a perfect addition to any collection. With its vintage original production style, this vase is sure to be a conversation starter. It is made of porcelain and stoneware, with a handcrafted finish and a printed backstamp. Whether displayed on its own or filled with flowers, this vase is a must-have for any lover of art pottery. There are no chips or cracks and it is in wonderful condition. Rock from Mt Shank was used to make the glaze on this pot Mount Schank is a 100 m high dormant volcano in the southeast corner of South Australia, near Mount Gambier. This vase emulates the surface texture of Australia's ancient Sandstone formations. ********** Trevor Pitt describes his pottery: "The South East coast where I live is rugged and beautiful. During rough weather, the powerful forces of the sea can be seen breaking in cascades of foam over the rocky outcrops and reefs, at other times there is a peacefulness and quietness which I find calming and restful. In my work, I try to express both of these energy states. Sometimes, the decoration on my pottery expresses the feeling of sea foam as it pounds into the rocks of the shore and cascades into beautiful patterns of water spray. In other pieces of work, there is a simple and purer statement about the quietness and solitude of the countryside. Many of my glazes incorporate materials found in the local countryside, and this is another aspect of my work which is important to me." ***** Item is used and shows signs of wear and tear as normally expected for its age.
