Superb "shell" shaped ceramic vase with crystallization signed

Crystallization ceramic vase. Very beautifully made, this shaped piece has a lot of charm (very soft and bright colors) and is signed. Crystallization is a natural phenomenon identical to that of snowflakes, but in the case of enamel, it occurs at high temperatures (around 1280°c). It is a technique that requires the use of particular glaze recipes and a rigorous cooking method. In particular, it is necessary to practice stages when the temperature drops (the oven is kept at a precise temperature for a certain period of time, which allows the crystals to form and obtain these “butterfly effects”). Height: 25.5 cm, diameter at the belly: 11.5 cm. For any additional questions or sending photos, please contact me directly: sylvere.carlier@neuf.fr.
