Richly textured and handsomely hand-painted, our Purple Top Thistle Vase brings to life the thistles that bloom in the Scottish highlands. This one-of-a-kind masterwork is created by our artisans in Aurora, New York, and the transformation from raw clay to functional ceramic art never ceases to amaze us. Rich green and purple decorate the body of the vase with striping on the base. Each handcrafted piece bears the stamps of the artisans who created it.
