This oval-shaped vase is fired using American-style raku, allowing the surface to transform dramatically through heat, smoke, and rapid cooling. The result is a striking contrast between finishes, each one formed naturally during the firing process and never repeatable.
The glaze reveals a star-chrome metallic effect, shimmering with silvery, cosmic tones that catch the light like scattered stardust. Set against a black matte background, the metallic surface feels bold yet quiet, creating depth, contrast, and movement across the form.
Both grounded and otherworldly, this vase stands beautifully on its own as a sculptural object or styled with dried botanicals.
