Large Ceramic Carved Banana Leaf Floor Vase

Floor vase featuring a deeply carved banana leaf motif, rendered in rich, earthy green and ochre tones over a natural clay body. Standing approximately 21 inches tall, the vessel showcases a rustic botanical style with vertical striations and incised leaf detailing that bring depth and texture to the piece. The flared rim and slightly tapered cylindrical form give it an elegant presence ideal for floor display or as a decorative centerpiece in tropical, bohemian, or modern rustic interiors.

Unsigned, likely dating to the late 20th century or early 2000s based on the glaze technique and design sensibilities. The bottom is unglazed with protective felt pads, further supporting its use as a freestanding decorative item.
