This spectacular Maple Forest dress vase stands 12" tall and is part of a collection designed by Canadian artist Jan Poynter. Signed on the bottom, the vase is hand painted to remind you of a Fall day in her native Canada or New England. It has been very delicately tubelined by experts to create the appearance of cloisonné (see below).
The shapely contours of this vase and the fabulous intricate design make it a showpiece that absolutely can be used to hold cut flowers. This is a fantastic opportunity to own a beautiful piece of craftmanship.
New. Handpainted porcelain. 12” tall. Original maroon satin-lined gift box.

Meet the Artist, Jan Poynter, Victoria, BC Canada: Born in 1957, Jan's creative education began in junior art class at the age of 10. She majored in Painting and Printmaking at the Vancouver School of Art and Art Education at the University of British Columbia. Jan's illustration and rendering abilities have contributed to her fine art career with expertise in watercolor, pastel and oil painting. Showing in private galleries, solo and group exhibitions since the late ‘70s, her work is based on realistic and colorful subjects including landscapes, interiors and floral studies.
The technique: There are three steps involved in the production of each exquisite piece, First the imagery is sketched onto the raw bisque and then the slip trailing (raised line work) is carefully applied. Next comes the initial firing, then the painting is done and a second firing takes place. The item is then dipped in a glaze solution. Left to dry for a few hours, it is then put through a third and final firing. The result is a beautiful and rich finish with a brilliant glaze.
