Sun vase

This decorative vase has been hand raised by Samuel Waterhouse in three parts: the main cylindrical body which tapers slightly as it rises, a thin neck, and lastly a head in the shape of a shallow bowl. Each section is decorated with a sun pattern of white, green and fine gold, using an adaptation of the Korean technique Keum Boo. Other sections have been ‘white baked', where the silver takes on a matt white colour, creating a pleasing contrast.
