A small dish for keeping precious things.
Thrown on the wheel with a blend of iron-rich stoneware clays, decorated with a white slip and glazed with an alkaline ash glaze.
Thrown on the wheel with a blend of high-iron stoneware, and glazed with a Nuka ash glaze.
The tenmoku glaze is made using a single, iron bearing rock - a local glacial sediment - with an addition of crushed, recycled glass. It is an opaque, glossy black where thick, with a pleasing dimpled texture like orange peel in places. Where the glaze breaks on the pots edges it turns a bright, rust, red, with hints of deep blue at the boundary.
The off-white, Nuka glaze is made using locally sourced Cherry ash, and pools beautifully into the base of the bowl with an effect reminiscent of a waterfall or melting snow.
Fired in the gas kiln in a reduction atmosphere.
Dimensions: 8.5×2cm
Weight: 120g
