Miniature Decorated Pot – Hand-Thrown Bud Vase, 2″ Tall
Approximate Dimensions: 2″ tall x 1.75″ wide at rim
Listing is for one mini bud vase
Small in size, full of character—this miniature hand-thrown bud vase is a celebration of scale, color, and craftsmanship. Measuring just 2 inches tall, it’s a perfect little accent piece for your shelf, desk, altar, or windowsill. Despite its size, it holds its own as a piece of functional pottery—capable of holding water and a single fresh flower, sprig of herbs, or dried bloom. It also shines simply on its own as a tiny work of art.
Glazed in a serene combination of sea-green, sky blue, and soft violet, the finish creates a dreamy, gradient effect that changes depending on the light and angle. Each piece is unique, with variations in color flow, pooling, and transitions that make no two vases exactly alike.
At Sarah Welch Pottery, we believe that even the smallest items in your home should be meaningful and well-made. These mini vases are carefully thrown on the wheel in our Colorado studio using in-house clay blends and our signature small-batch glazes. Learn more about how each piece is made:
