Cornflower Inlay

Cleveland Museum of Art

Cornflower Inlay by artist. Small, ceramic vase with a distinctive shape. The bottom half of the vase is bulbous and covered in a textured, green glaze. The top half flares out, resembling a trumpet or a fan, with a blue glaze. The blue portion has vertical ridges. The background is dark at the top and lightens towards the bottom. The vase casts a shadow on the surface below it.
