Painted Bloom Vase set of two A genuine antique

A genuine antique

The velvet has softened to a lived-in nap and the wood glows where hands have rested

it asks you to stay a while

softened to a pale grey-cream where a hundred years of light and touch have worn the limewash back to the wood

Set into the scrollwork are deep red garnets and pale green peridots

Painted Bloom Vase set of two A genuine antiqueA speckled honey toned vase with a wide flared lip, a single bloom drawn across the belly in dark brushstrokes that still look wet. The form is generous and low, made for a short gathered handful rather than long stems. Set it where the afternoon light lands and the whole surface warms. Thrown and painted by hand by Michele, our consignment partner. One of one.
