Embossed Paisley Ceramic Bud Vase

This is a medium-sized, globular-shaped ceramic vase featuring a prominent embossed paisley and floral motif. The vessel is finished with a high-gloss, pale lavender or light orchid-toned glaze that exhibits subtle irisdescence under direct light. The piece is constructed with relatively thick walls, typical of slip-cast earthenware. Its defining physical characteristic is the repetitive, raised paisley pattern that encircles the body, accented by small beaded or dotted details that frame the main floral elements. The base of the vase transitions into a dark gray or charcoal-colored, short-footed pedestal, which provides a stark contrast to the light upper body. The top tapers slightly to a narrow rim, suggesting its use as a bud vase or decorative tabletop accent. In terms of condition, the piece appears to be in good secondary market condition with no visible cracks or heavy crazing, though there is a slight surface occlusion or 'pitting' visible near the top right curvature, likely a manufacturing flaw in the glaze. The style is contemporary, likely produced within the last 20 years, and belongs to a mass-produced home decor line characterized by eclectic or 'boho-chic' aesthetic influences. While no maker's marks are visible in the photograph, the craftsmanship is consistent with quality commercial decorative arts.
