This terracotta stoneware vase, dating from around 1890, exemplifies the traditional craftsmanship of the late 19th century. Its elongated cylindrical shape, topped with a narrow neck and featuring a side handle, gives it a silhouette that is both functional and sculptural.
Made of ceramic, this vase has a glaze in subtle shades of taupe and gray, contrasting with the unglazed terracotta base. The surface texture reveals the hand-throwing techniques, with slight variations in color that attest to the kiln-firing process.
This vase blends harmoniously into rustic or wabi-sabi style interiors, adding a touch of authenticity and history. It can be displayed on its own as a decorative object or used to showcase dried flower arrangements, harmonizing perfectly with natural materials such as raw wood or linen.
