I loved these cutwork vases and was very tempted to purchase one; however, it was not feasible at the time.

Several earlier posts featured other pottery at the pottery factory.

    It seems everything done there is done with skill and a steady hand. Such perfection. I imagine a candle inside the vase making the shadows beautiful

    I can't imagine doing such detailed work all day long. Her hand must be very steady.

    Seeing your picture I have gained a new appreciation for cut-work pottery. I don't know how I thought they did it but that's not it! It is a beautiful art.

    Absolutely amazing. Are they sturdy or delicate, or does it depend?
