Methone is a small moon orbiting around Saturn. It was probably a captured object. It is named after one of the Alkyonides, daughters of the god Alkyoneus who was born of Gaia and the blood of Uranus. I call these shapes of vases "landscapes", because I imagine them as a canvas. The more you observe, the more you see. The vase was coiled by hand and fired up to 1240C. Methone is made with a grey clay and partially covered with porcelain slip. It is glazed inside and features a range of glazes outside. The vase is functional and measures 14 cm in height and around 9 cm in diameter at its middle (largest) point. It is an irregular shape All the glazes are formulated and made by me. Certificate of authenticity will be provided. This vase is part of the 274 Moons / 274 Vases projects. I am building a vase for each of the 274 moons orbiting Saturn.
