This vase is strictly decorative, it cannot hold food or water, and isn't dishwasher safe. It was handmade on the wheel and then raku-fired, which gives it a unique glaze and crackle pattern.

I love the paintbrush stroke on the glazing of this shape. It's slightly non-symmetrical, but I love its elegance.

This piece has a crack at the bottom. It's not water-tight because of the raku firing however and the crack is hidden by the small neck of the vase.

This vase is about 4.25in (11cm) high, 3.5in (9cm) wide, and the opening at the top is about 0.75in (2cm) wide on the inside.
