Studio pottery is pottery made by professional and amateur artists or artisans working alone or in small groups, making unique items or short runs. Typically, all stages of manufacture are carried out by the artists themselves.
If you're looking for unique, decorative yet functional items for your home, vintage ceramics are all you need. Becoming more and more fashionable, these stand out pieces would look lovely in any style home.
This beautifully simple handmade bud vase is sure to look great on any shelf. It has potentially been made by local to us (Carlisle, Cumbria) potter Henry Jobling as it features a simple stamped 'J' that was present in his early pieces, however we've been unable to find many other visual examples of his work to compare against. The perfect item to add to any collection, or the perfect piece to start. In good condition with some light wear commensurate with age.
Measures approximately 9.5cm tall and 10cm wide.
