The Celtic Vase's base starts out wide and round at the bottom then becomes a straight pillar as it continues upward with a winding line design that has no beginning or end. The Copper iridescent glaze is a shiny, smooth metallic glaze with many variations. Some pieces end up with a blue-gray flashing of color that covers a portion of the surface.

Inspired by a historic Pewabic lamp base from our museum collection, the Celtic Vase is wrapped in beautiful interweaving lines reflecting the style of Irish knots and timeless architecture.

Many consider the Iridescent glaze to be Pewabic's most important contribution to ceramic art. Through trial, error, and sheer persistence, Mary Chase Perry Stratton developed her first successful Iridescent glaze in 1906. Establishing the formula and stabilizing the firing process took another three years.

Today our Iridescent pieces are fired somewhat similarly, though with safer materials. It requires a third firing and a process called fuming, when vegetable oil is injected into the kiln to create the extraordinary one-of-a-kind effects.
