Large Baluster Vase
Green Glaze
Description:
A green, tapered vase made and designed in Denmark by K H Würtz.
With areas of matte and lustrous green glaze, this large, tapered vase has a striking depth of colour. Both vibrant and soft, the glaze of this piece showcases a full spectrum of natural greens and browns, with subtle flashes of vivid turquoise.
Kasper Würtz runs a ceramicists studio based near Horsens in eastern Jutland, Denmark. Known internationally for their hand-thrown and hand-glazed ceramics they have produced bespoke collections for distinguished fine dining restaurants around the world. Würtz crockery can be found at Geranium and Noma in Denmark, Törst, and Luksus in the US and L’Enclume and The Ledbury in the UK.
Ceramics by Würtz are usually made of stoneware, occasionally of porcelain. Their aesthetics are inspired by both Nordic utilitarian crafts and 20th century British studio pottery; their practice involves traditional wheel-turning and glazing methods.
The visual language developed by Wurtz is recognisable in a number of features such as the assured inner-outer ratio of every piece, the subtle concavity even in the flattest plates and the glazed surface in which matt and shine areas alternate harmoniously.
