In the nature of the subject, each vase is a completely one of a kind, original sculpture.
Each piece undergoes a multistep process.
The stoneware vessel is carefully hand formed and detailed to create a unique shape, each slightly differing from the rest.
In each Woman Vase you will find similarities and natural flaws, adding to the beauty of the whole.
