Brad Lee Henry Small Pottery Vase. Measures 5" in height. Excellent condition.
This exquisite Brad Lee Henry vase showcases the artist's mastery of high-fire stoneware and innovative glazing techniques. The piece features a striking contrast between a rich, metallic-tinged chocolate brown drip glaze at the rim and a rustic, unglazed matte terracotta finish near the base. Henry’s work is highly interactive, often featuring ergonomic details and hand-painted "Asian-inspired" designs like cherry blossoms or contemporary patterns that "come alive" during the gas-firing process in his Truckee studio.
Standing at 5 inches tall, this compact "ikebana-style" vase is ideally suited for minimalist floral arrangements or as a standalone sculptural accent on a mantel or bookshelf. Because each piece is hand-thrown on an electric wheel and fired in a downdraft kiln, no two vases are exactly alike, offering a one-of-a-kind tactile experience for any collector of American studio pottery.
This item is vintage, approximately 25 to 30 years old. While the item appears to be in excellent condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw, I would reach out prior to sending it.
