Description
An enticing deep blue finish with subtle hints of purple, and lightening around the rim and base that edge give this bold form a delicate touch. Hand crafted by Anna Silverton, this beautifully soft form has a clean, unobstructed silhouette and a weight that adds depth to the rounded body, contrasting wonderfully to the slim rim.
