About this piece
The pleasure of this vase is in following the decoration around it. Orange curls meet pointed green shapes, while patches of cream give the eye room to pause. Colenbrander’s design makes the lid part of that movement, carrying colour and ornament upwards to the yellow tip. Even standing empty, the vase has plenty to say: an everyday association with flowers gives way to the expressive possibilities of painted pottery itself.
