Sentinel Vessel
52" high, 24" wide
At his studio in Brattleboro, VT, Stephen Procter turns out magnificent large pots that are perfect for almost any garden. As he says himself, "A good pot can bring a room to life, announce an entry point, or create a garden destination."
The vessels are high-fire stoneware, and the ones that have lids can be used outdoors year-round and will do pefectly well in freezing temperatures.
He works on a potter's wheel using the coil-and-throw method, and the results are clearly wonderful garden sculptures.
For those of you in the Northeast, Steve is exhibiting this year at the Boston Flower and Garden Show March 13-17.
