This rare vase is striking in appearance and is the only example I've ever found like this. The vase is decorated with a speckled agate composed of tiny bits of multi-color clay sprinkled on the wet clay surface, then cut smooth on a lathe. This decorative technique was first developed and used by English potters for a brief period during the 1800s and in the 1900s by a French ceramist Jean Gerbino. He called the style micro mosaic or clay mosaic.
Measuring 3 ¾ in height, the vase is in original mint condition with no damage or repairs. There is an unglazed foot rim on the underside of the vase that is impressed with his mark. The vase is highly glazed and can be used as a functional item or just admired as a beautiful and unique piece of rare pottery.
