This vase was wood-fired for 120hrs and had significant ember build up on one side resulting in a beatiful surface and ash runs. The other side of the vase is clean salt glazed. I love pots like this one that have so much variation because in a way you get two for one. Put it on a mantle or shelf and rotate occassionally to fit your mood. The vase stands 13.5" tall by 8" wide.
