Symmetrical Wheel Thrown Vase

This is an earthenware vase. It has a long skinny neck, but enlarges towards the bottom. It stays symmetric through out. If I cut the vase in two, I would be left with two symmetric pieces. The only feature of this vase that may not be symmetric is the glaze patterns. The glaze resembles the bamboo glaze that we use. A major difference in this vase compared to the guidelines for our vases is that the diameter of the top is not equal to the diameter of the base.
