Paper Mache Mohenjodaro Vase

An archaeological sensibility shapes this striking papier-mâché vase. Its rounded body and broad, flared mouth recall ancient storage vessels, while the layered relief work and distressed surface bring to mind weathered artefacts unearthed after centuries beneath the earth.

The exterior is worked with raised geometric and figurative detailing, then finished in a deep earthy tone with lighter areas showing through. This rubbed-back effect gives the vase a timeworn, excavated quality and draws attention to the intricate patterning across the body.

Its substantial profile makes it especially effective as a standalone floor or tabletop accent. The wide opening can be styled with dried grasses, seed heads, artificial foliage or lightweight branches, though the piece is equally compelling left empty, where its form and surface can take centre stage.

Despite its sculptural scale, the papier-mâché construction keeps the vase relatively light and easy to reposition. Minor irregularities in the rim, relief, texture and finish are inherent to the handmade process and deepen its individual character.
