About MeThis tall vase tapers towards the foot and is slightly everted at the rim. There are distinct potting rings inside which have been smoothed on the exterior before the decoration was applied.The artist used masking tape and double dipped the glaze to create the turquoise and blue stripes on this vase. There is a slight twist to the stripes with the darker blue stripes narrowing to the foot, emphasising the overall tapering shape of the vase.
