'Opal Moon' Sculptural Lusterware Vase
'Opal Moon' Sculptural Lusterware Vase
Hand built from stoneware clay, this vase is a one-of-a-kind artwork, finished with a creative application of my personally formulated luster glazes, and fired through a specially developed multi-stage process. During the gas reduction, an alchemical transformation occurs: the metals in the glaze shift and transmute, creating surfaces alive with iridescence and shimmering tones of gold, copper, and rainbow sheen. These layered, multi-glaze finishes are impossible to replicate exactly, as the nuances of application and firing ensure each piece is truly unique.
This piece has a moon like opal shine - so much subtle variation in the glaze work, and a beautiful interplay with the texture of the form and clay.
It is both functional and sculptural - a vessel for flowers, branches, or grasses, and equally striking as a stand-alone art object. Its surface shimmers differently in every light, offering an ongoing sense of enchantment and sensory discovery.
This lusterware vase is:
Handcrafted & one-of-a-kind.
Finished with unique proprietary luster glazes and an intricate firing process refined over years of experimentation.
Functional art - striking as a display piece, yet designed to be used and enjoyed in daily life.
Care: Hand wash with gentle touch. Handle like moonlight.
This vase is not just a container but a living artwork… an invitation to slow down, notice beauty, and bring a sense of presence into your home.
Size: 8” x 7” x7”
✨ Because of the unique alchemy of lusterware, the surface will shift in color and sheen depending on the light. This unpredictability is part of its magic.
