Vessel, by Adrian Hope

Add to album

This copper vessel with brass handles was made by the Scottish artist Adrian Hope in 1988. It was inspired by pre-Christian pottery.

The blackened cylindrical copper vessel has a flared lip and wavy full-length brass handles.

During the 1980s the Scottish Development Agency purchased a number of hand-crafted items for its Scottish Crafts Collection. The aim of the collection was to inform the public of craft production in Scotland through touring exhibitions and education programmes. When the Scottish Craft Council was wound up, the collection was transferred to the National Museums of Scotland.
