Recently, I have had an addition to my work table that I cannot put down - a handmade ceramic vase inspired by the curves of the human body. It has a unique shape and smooth lines, as if it were a work of art grown from nature. Today, I want to share with you the story behind this piece and how it adds a unique touch of charm to my living space.

Inspiration: The beauty and power of the human body
This vase is inspired by the curves of the human body. I like to observe human gestures, especially those that naturally stretch, such as bending, stretching or dancing in the moment. These dynamic lines remind me of moving water, swaying branches, and even the traces of wind blowing through sand dunes. So, I integrated these soft and powerful curves into the design of the vase, making it both like a practical vessel and an abstract sculpture.

Pure white: a sense of sophistication in simplicity
I chose pure white as the main color of the vase. White is a very inclusive color, it can make the space appear clean and bright, but also to highlight the color of the flowers themselves. The white glaze of this vase has been polished and fired many times, presenting a warm texture, which is delicate and smooth to the touch, as if you can feel the process of soil transformation in the heat.

Small circular handle: ingenuity in detail
At the mouth of the bottle, I specially designed a small circular handle. The handle is not only easy to reach, but also adds a touch of interest to the look. It is like the "earring" of the vase, which makes the whole work appear more flexible. The handle is also designed with practicality in mind, making it easy to operate, whether arranging flowers or changing water.

Collocation advice: Let the flower talk to the vessel
I tried to match this vase with a few white tulips and it worked surprisingly well. The elegant lines of the tulips complement the curves of the vase, and the whole looks fresh and ethereal, as if it were a complete work of art. If you prefer more vibrant colors, you can also try pairing them with red roses or sunflowers, and a white vase will bring out the colors of the flowers.

Temperature of handmade ceramics
As a lover of handmade ceramics, I always believe that every handmade work carries the emotion and temperature of the craftsman. I put my heart and soul into every step of this vase, from mashing and shaping to glazing and firing. I hope it can become a part of your life and bring a touch of nature and art into your space.
