Tall Contemporary Earthenware Stem Vase - Cyprus

Beautiful tall single stem or decorative vase in green and grey-blue glazed earthenware. It's a very contemporary design with two wings, asymmetrically arranged, and these are quite rough in strict contrast to the smooth lines of the vase itself. There is a hole through the neck but it's only a couple of mm wide so I think this is rather more decorative than functional. It may be that the hole is simply there to allow the hot air to escape during firing. There's a name on the base but it's in Greek, although it also says "Cyprus E24". Gorgeous item in mint condition.

22cm x 9cm. Bowl 4.5cm dia.
