vasart vases for beginners

<< < (2/2)

KevinH:
For the vase to the right, I think it might be rather like one I have, for which I have no attribution.

It's a small vase. [I really should update the photo that states it as 812 mm !! ... 82 mm is correct.] It's finished with a thin, bubbly coating (extremely tiny bubbles) which has then been crackled. The coating does reach to the rim but because of the thinness of the colour, at a distance it appers to have a clear border below the rim.

The base view shows that it was finished with central grinding and polishing but it's a bit off-centred and the edge of the polished area is not properly circular.

If anyone recognises this (or the one Martin showed), I'd be pleased to know more about it.

Frank:
Adam, pineapple mould would surely give a regular result. I would be more inclided to suspect the pieces of enamel have a minute particle that vaporises. The tiny bubbles are always in the center of a colour 'blob'. Memory on terminology not working today :roll:
