Flower Queen Vase
Flower Queen Vase is a one-off and unique piece, hand-made using stoneware clay.
The shape is built up over time as the lower coils need firming up before I continue with the next coil. Otherwise the piece will distort.
When I am satisfied with the shape, all the details are hand modelled and added. This is a wonderful part of the process when the vase comes to life.
Depending on the climate and time of year and size of the product, the work is left to dry for 1 - 4 weeks. When fully dry it goes through a bisque firing, then gets glazed in a white shiny stoneware glaze and fired for the 2nd time.
After this the shiny colourful glazes are painted on by hand and I make these glazes up from a base powder, adding different % of oxides and colour stains to achieve my unique colourful finish. Then I fire the kiln for the 3rd and hopefully last time, if I am happy with the result.
The final result is unique, very tactile and colourful work of art that is useful and waterproof too.
Dimensions: 32 cm tall, 12 cm deep and 19 cm wide.
