Faux Bois Honey Pot Vase Urn 1980s
About the Item
A rustic bark pattern or ‘faux bois’ handcrafted coil pot. Unsigned and the period unclear, but I would say 1980s.
This substantial pot gives crunchy texture and drenched caramel color. The generous size lends it strong presence, with a lovely, rounded shape and a sense of weight and a grounded, earthy quality.
It's clearly been made for floral display, as it's been carefully glazed to the interior and holds a good few pints of water.
This highly textured vase goes really well with other pots and contrasts beautifully with smooth objects and polished surfaces. Can also go completely rustic and anchor an outdoor table setting. Very appealing.
Note the second taller, brown pot shown in the images for this listing is by the same (unknown) artist and the two work beautifully as a pair. Also of note, this is a rustic pot, hand coiled, imperfectly shaped and has small chips and glaze omissions visible on the surface (see images). These are not very noticeable amid the rough texture.
There are no cracks. The vase has been tested, is water fast with a fully glazed interior. Unsigned and no maker stamp.
