The sculptural silhouette boasts strong vertical fluted ribbing throughout the body, accented by fine relief-molded olive or laurel leaf decorative bands wrapping securely around the lower neck and the perimeter of the footed base.

The interior features a completely smooth finish, highlighting the incredible craft composition pioneered by Josiah Wedgwood in the late 18th century. It sits entirely stable on flat surfaces. This architectural vessel looks striking empty as a minimalist profile piece or holding structured floral arrangements. Marked on the reverse underside with the iconic impressed factory stamps: "WEDGWOOD MADE IN ENGLAND." See less
