This ceramic pot, entitled 'Vase No. 2', was made with half stoneware clay by the Scottish artist Douglas Davies in 1980.
The classically-shaped pot has a very dry green top rim and a blackish red coke-like body.
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.
