A substantial signed studio pottery vessel by Louise Bishop, distinguished by its classic flared rim and bulbous silhouette. Subtle surface variations, inherent to the hand-forming process, enhance it's authentic character, while an incised botanical wheat motif is enriched by layered earthy brown slip glazes with contrasting pale blue highlights that accentuates the decorative relief and flow through the neck. A fine example of late 20th -century studio pottery, inspired by traditional folk pottery aesthetic.
