Description

Evoking thoughts of rocky mountains and stormy skies, Beyer's compelling blue, gray, and gold vase resembles natural azurite. The irregular shape and dripping glazes, inspired by Japanese sources, express a reverence for nature and its accidental beauty. This vase belongs to the middle period of Beyer's career, a time when he was experimenting with a variety of exciting glaze effects. Marks: inscribed P. Beyer
