Grey and Red "Urchin" Vessel- black porcelain hand-thrown, carved, and under-glazed-One of a KInd
$44.00 $55.00
I threw this vessel on the potter's wheel using a swirl of grey and black porcelain. When the piece was leather-hard, I trimmed it on the wheel then hand-carved the pattern and painted dark red and chartreuse underglaze into the incisions. Once the piece was bisque-fired, I applied a dark red high-fire glaze to the inside and a clear gloss high-fire glaze to the outside. It can be purchased as is (vessel only) or with a small natural cork stopper. It reminds me of a sea urchin.
This little vessel is a perfect salt, spice, potion, or stash jar. It can also hold jewelry, small precious keepsakes, or even homemade balms or healing ointments. The glazes used on this piece are all food-safe. Please hand-wash only.
The dimensions (without the cork stopper) are approximately 2.2" tall x 2.75" wide (5.5cm x 6.9cm), and the weight is 5.3 oz (.148 kg).
Each piece I create is one of a kind and takes many hours of joyful labor to complete.
I am also listing stoneware items in a different shop called GyreAlchemy, which is dedicated only to pottery. If you are interested, you can take a look and follow here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/GyreAlchemy?ref=seller-platform-mcnav
