Handmade Southwestern Studio Pottery Bud Vase Terracotta Turquoise Spiral

This handmade studio pottery bud vase features a warm terracotta clay body accented with soft turquoise glaze and hand-painted decorative details. The surface is adorned with spiral and sunburst motifs connected by flowing lines, creating a Southwestern / desert-inspired aesthetic that feels both rustic and artistic. The color palette of earthy clay tones with aqua highlights gives the piece a natural, organic presence. The vase has a sculptural asymmetrical form with a gently tapered body and a distinctive rolled spiral rim. The narrow opening is ideal for displaying a single flower stem, dried botanical, or small cutting, though the piece is equally attractive as a standalone decorative object. The unglazed base and subtle kiln speckling throughout the glaze are consistent with handmade studio pottery. Crafted from earthenware, the vase has a matte natural clay finish contrasted by glossy glaze accents. It is unmarked on the base, which is common for individual artisan-made pottery pieces. Each angle reveals slightly different details in the hand-painted design, adding to its visual interest. Measurements: • Length: 4” • Height: 3.5” • Width: 2.25” Condition: Very good vintage condition with no cracks or repairs. Minor surface variations, glaze texture, and small natural imperfections are present and are typical of handmade pottery.
