This one-of-a-kind crystalline bud vase is an experimental ceramic artwork inspired by galaxies, deep space, and cosmic movement. Handmade in my Melbourne studio, this vessel developed extraordinary oversized crystal formations during firing, with the crystals growing so dramatically that they have engulfed much of the vase surface.
The result is a mesmerising landscape of flowing charcoal, smoky silver, soft blue, and iridescent galaxy-like tones. Large circular crystalline formations spread organically across the surface, creating a celestial appearance reminiscent of planets, nebulae, and lunar textures.
Its elegant, rounded form and elongated neck make it ideal as a sculptural statement piece or a small bud vase for a single stem or dried arrangement.
Due to the highly experimental nature of crystalline glazing, this piece is completely unique and impossible to reproduce.

Materials
Materials
Most Buxton Pottery pieces are made from high-fired stoneware clay, chosen for its strength, durability and suitability for everyday use.
Crystalline pottery pieces are generally made from high-fired porcelain, which provides a smooth, light-coloured surface that allows the crystal glazes to develop clearly during firing.
All pieces are individually handmade and finished with food-safe ceramic glazes.
