A quietly striking ceramic vase by master potter Vicente Hernández, known for his hand-thrown forms and traditional sgraffito carving techniques rooted in Oaxacan craftsmanship. This piece features a soft matte green glaze contrasted by etched terracotta-toned patterns—subtle, geometric, and intentionally grounded.
 
Measuring 6” tall and 5” across at its widest point, it’s compact but weighty in presence. The carved details are done by hand, revealing the clay body beneath a thin slip glaze in classic Hernández fashion. Signed on the underside.
 
This is the kind of piece that holds its own: on a bookshelf, in a vignette, or layered into a collected ceramics display. It also makes a meaningful gift for collectors or those drawn to traditional Mexican pottery with contemporary balance.
