My vases are not glass or ceramic. They are constructed from natural stone, bonded with fortified masonry. Selected pieces are carefully worked by hand. I saw, split and break the stone to achieve the desired shape of the vase, leaving attractive, natural looking broken edges. Every vase has my initials etched into the stone.
Each vase has one especially decorative face showing exposed aggregates or semi precious minerals and gems. The other three sides are solid rock. The vases are fully waterproof and may be sprayed or immersed in water for cleaning purposes, each has a glass core to ensure that it is completely watertight and will not seep any moisture. Cork pads are added to the base to protect furniture.
This particular vase is 12 ins. high and weighs 11 lbs. It is constructed from an Indigo-black slate with areas of silver shimmer. I added a seam of, Hematite, Mica and Obsidian Glass.
The price of this vase is 165.00 CDN. Available from my studio or at the Saltspring Saturday market.
I also ship my work. You can make a secure online purchase in many currencies from my website, www.vaseguy.com, or by contacting me by email.
