This reliquary is very similar to those made in the art studio and on the "collections" page. This piece was an attempt to resemble that vase in the classroom with a soft celadon green with white inlay designs on the body walls. the lip is slightly wider on the top than in the one I sketched but it has the same resemblance. The designs are different in this vase but the motif of white still continues within in the designs. Although the other celadon reliquary holds an asian look to it, this remake looks more like a simpler Western attempt at the asian reliquary, still maintaining a nice look and a smooth body, but lacking the asian style, technique and fine detail of their intricate designs.
