Description

the pear-shaped body rising from a straight foot to a slightly tapered tubular neck, covered on the exterior with a brilliant crushed-strawberry glaze draining to white from the rim and suffused throughout with a network of fine crackles, the glaze transmuting to a purple-tinged glaze around the neck with subtle spots and darker streaks around the body, the base left unglazed
