Inkpot Inspiration - part I


European Inkpot Ceramic Vase with Cobalt, White and Brown Glazing (LEO Design)

The "Classic Inkpot" form makes for an interesting and useful vase.  Because of its smallish size, it is a great teammate within a larger collection—as it provides size variation while standing in front of taller pieces.  And, unlike a bowl, there is no "awkward interior." The finished shoulders always look good—even when looking-down upon it.  For three days, we'll be sharing some of our most interesting inkpot vases, now in-stock at LEO Design.

The piece above is European-made, from the 1960's, 1970's or 1980's.  It is glazed in a spontaneous mix of cobalt blue, rusty brown and hints of white.  Please click on the photo above to learn more about it.
