This vase is hand thrown on the potter's wheel and is made of white stoneware and crystalline glaze with copper as the primary colorant.  Macro crystalline glazes such as this "grow" crystals at around 2000 degrees F.  The size of these crystals reflects about six hours of "growth" while the kiln is at 2000 degrees.

Vase is approximately 8" tall and 6" wide at the widest part.
