British Studio Pottery Wood-Fired Vase Micki Schloessingk Bridge Pottery Wales
A wood-fired stoneware vase with decoratively cut sides, handmade by the renowned potter Micki Schloessingk at her studio in Gower, Wales, C. This vase has an abstract & organic form that seems closely related to the Earth and to nature; attributes so typical of the finest British pottery of the 20th Century. A defining feature of this piece is the wood-firing process. Heating a kiln by wood is a slow & unpredictable challenge, yet the unique beauty imparted by the flames onto each pot make it the preferred firing method for many studio potters. The organic beauty of this vase is wonderfully enhanced by the subtle colours, varied textures, distinctive pits and spots, all which are the result of this particular firing method. Year of Design: C. Colour: Brown, rust, ochre. Height: 16 cm, Diameter: 12.5 cm. Branding: Impressed mark,’M.
