About the Item
This is a mammoth vase. This striking, sculptural stoneware vase by contemporary ceramicist Aleph Hammer demonstrates the artist’s mastery of organic form and architectural balance. The monumental vessel rises in an elegant, elongated oval body with a speckled matte glaze in subtle shades of soft gray-blue. At the top, Hammer’s signature hand-built style reveals itself in bold, ribbon-like folds and deeply carved apertures, creating a fluid interplay of positive and negative space.
The form evokes both modernist abstraction and natural growth, making it equally suited as a standalone art object or as a vessel for dramatic floral display. The surface bears Hammer’s subtle textural treatment, and the base is incised with the artist’s signature.
Aleph Hammer is known for producing powerful ceramic works that blur the line between sculpture and vessel, often with architectural and biomorphic influences. This example captures his ability to balance mass and delicacy, presenting a piece that feels at once grounded and ethereal.
