Gorgeous 2004 Twisted Neck Matte Green Studio Pottery Vase sculpture of skiier Clara Ellaline Hope Leighton (sometimesI spotted this stunning vase in a case otherwise filled with American Art Pottery from the early 20th century, where it both stood out and fit right in. (The form also immediately reminded me of Edward Weston's photographs of bell peppers!)

Gorgeous all the way
