Crease Vase

A study in quiet tension, the Crease Vase by John Richard draws its character from the deliberate fold pressed into its porcelain body — a gesture that transforms an otherwise elemental silhouette into something sculptural and considered. At fifteen inches, it commands presence without demanding attention, its hand-applied glaze lending each piece a subtle singularity that only the human hand can impart. The restrained palette and softly irregular surface speak to the intersection of craft and intention that defines truly collected objects.
