'Crockery' big vase 1

Designed by Max Lamb for 1882 Ltd, the 'Crockery' vase is a demonstration of human strength and the physical properties of clay. Crafted entirely by hand and limited to a series of 25, the fine bone china vase starts life as a solid block of plaster that is carved by hammer and chisel into its final shape. This is then used to create a three part hollow mould from which a number of vases can be slip-cast, each one fired by hand and glazed on the inside with biscuit on the outside.
