The landscape of Monterey expresses
balance without symmetry, hence the name for this style. The pieces used in
the fabrication of this type of vessel are quite dissimilar, yet when combined
in the Monterey style, depict harmony. It results when a hodge podge of pieces
and scraps are assembled into two plaster hemispheres of different size. The
larger one forms the vessel's body and the smaller its lid, so the lid of
a Monterey piece will be larger than in all other styles. This style requires
the least amount of time to complete a finished piece, usually about four
months.
