This vase is a great shape and weight, it fits the curve of my hand perfectly and is just begging to be dashed to the ground and broken into smithereens. Either that or maybe bowled to someone wielding a baseball bat who could shatter it with one well aimed strike.

Of course I wouldn’t dream of smashing an attractive vase, not matter how much it was begging to be hurled, but this just doesn’t fit the bill. It’s got a rippled sides from the potters wheel which strikes me as pure laziness, it must just be too much hard work to produce a smooth finish.

The flower decorating the side is reminiscent of a butterfly at the base and suns in place of the buds. Also I’ve never seen a flower that the main stem split into three with a flower at the top of each, normally each flower would sit atop it’s own stem rising from the base of the plant.

This one is just too tempting to keep…. has anyone out there got a baseball bat I could borrow?
