Symmetrical Vases

This vase attracted me because of its creativity and color combination. It's interesting because it's in the shape of a flower, which is very different from most vases.
I really like the shape of this vase (although it's not really symmetrical). Also, the color combination of the blue glaze and the rusty orange color is nice.

Symmetrical Vases

 I chose these two pieces as symmetrical vases because I thought they both maintained their quirkiness while still being symmetrical. The purple piece has a slight color shift midway through, like it was dipped only halfway in bright purple and the other half was a muted brownish violet. This piece reminds me of a heart in the way it is slightly angled to the right and rounded. I like that it's floating above the ground.







The blue piece moves from robin's egg to firm gray, and looks like a large drop of water. It makes me think of a Rothko painting. I especially like the shape of this piece.

Two wheel thrown peices

the second piece is something that i want to do now and i feel that i have the skill to do it now. I just need to work on my precision while i am cutting and fitting the lid.

the first piece really caught my attention as a piece that i would want to be able to do by the end of this year. the handle is pulled perfectly and the the lid and spout both are smooth and seem to ft very nicely. As for the slip and glaze they both seem to be done with immense precision and detail.

This is a modern piece that shows symmetry and the a good rounded vase shape. This vase also has a nice pattern going down its side. I think this is a very nice touch to the piece.

This piece is very unique due to its narrow curvy neck and how skinny it is. This vase is very appealing to the eye because of the zebra strips that add to the overall beauty to the piece.

This is a pretty cool vase because of the textured design on the neck. There is also a cut out star looking shape along the neck. I think that the way the blue and white glaze came out makes this piece unique and really nice.

I picked this vase because of the simple design. I like the glaze because it fades away towards the bottom. I also like that the lip and neck are wide.
