2021 is here . . . can you feel things getting better? The days are getting longer. A Covid vaccine is ready for injection (if only it would be distributed). And new leadership is making plans to move our country in a new and better direction. It's as though the sun has emerged—after four years of barren darkness and bitter cold.
This vase, made in England in the 1920's or 1930's, boasts a "molten" glaze of oranges and yellows—seemingly boiling on the vertically-ribbed walls of this gourd-form vase. It reminds me of the surface of the Sun, where swirls of molten magma radiate their energy to the Earth below. While the Sun holds the power to sustain life or kill it, this vase, made by Pilkington Royal Lancastrian in the 1920's, should only lend a sunny disposition to your living room.
