About the object: The
stoneware vase impresses with its vibrant design and meticulous craftsmanship.
Its rustic texture harmoniously complements the imaginative floral
ornamentation. The soft, slightly asymmetrical shapes give the vase a graceful
and unique appearance. With a height of approximately 40 cm and a diameter of
about 45 cm, this piece stands out as a striking floor vase. The base, which
tapers downward, also lends it a sense of lightness. The combination of
artisanal technique, artistic decoration, and functional design makes this vase
a unique work of art and a captivating focal point in any room.
Manufacturing Process: The vase was made using the slab-building technique from coarse fireclay stoneware clay. The shapes are created by carefully joining and modeling the rolled-out clay slabs. The imaginative floral motifs were painted onto the ochre-colored clay using white sinter engobe. The sintered gob was deliberately applied thickly, which meant that it partially flaked off during the firing process. This creates the striking surface structure of the vessel. The inside of the vase is glazed white, making it impermeable to water.

Lotte Buur lives on the Danish island of Samsø, where she makes her unique stoneware vases. Born in 1966, the artist began her career as a printmaker and later as a graphic designer before discovering painting and modeling in her mid-twenties. In the last ten years, her focus has increasingly shifted to ceramics. Today, she devotes herself almost exclusively to the production of stoneware vases, which she both turns on the potter's wheel and shapes using the slab-building technique.
Lotte Buur has taken part in numerous exhibitions, mainly presenting her sculptures and paintings. More recently, she joined forces with volunteers to realize the large-scale land art project "Thistle Corridor". It was created in connection with the planned Kattegatt Bridge, which is to connect the island of Zealand with Jutland. The project strengthens togetherness, invites discussion and deepens appreciation for nature.
For Lotte Buur, nature is the starting point of her creative process and the most important source of inspiration. She therefore prefers to present her vases in her idyllic garden, surrounded by flowers and leaves.
