Modernist Vase by Victoria Littlejohn

About the Item

Exceptional spiked vase in earth-toned glaze by famed Southern California ceramic artist Vitoria Littlejohn. This is a rare one-off piece and is among the finest examples of Littlejohn's work I have come across. The form of the sculpture evokes the body of a sea anenome.
