Thanks Ivo and Sue. I have been searching and researching trying to figure out how it may be made. On looking at it, there is a pink inner layer, then a layer that has the stripes of inclusions and bubbles, then a further outer layer of thick clear casing. They appear to be three separate layers from looking at the side view where you can see the 'layer' of stripes appearing below the pink inner, and, on looking at it, I do think it is separate layers. That isn't an illusion. I was wondering how you might blow a layer of stripes on top of a solid layer of pink? was a clear layer blown over the pink layer, then somehow the ridges were made int that clear layer by a mould or something
then as the outer clear layer was put on over that, those ridges appeared as stripes being made by air bubbles and appear as internally decorated? But how would you get the inclusions in there? Sue I agree, I was thinking the addition of the inclusions could have caused the bubbles to appear but then I was fascinated to know how you would get inclusions to go on in stripes? :spls:
It definitely looks to me to be a similar technique in one way, to the Gunnel Nyman vase I linked to. Those have been described as ariel technique but from my searching I wasn't entirely sure if they really were? are they? BTW I'm not saying this one is, just trying to learn a bit more.
