@Susan60 Thanks! I’m really proud of the way my spouts pour. It’s a technical detail I’ve been honing for years. Water and olive oil do pour differently, though, and sometimes there’s a little dribble with oil, which is why I included the plates. #FunctionalPottery
Sangria glaze on the dragons and fancy feet, Satin Matte on the carved body, of this candle holder/incense diffuser.
I don’t make many plates, for no good reason, really. For a potter, it doesn’t get much more gratifying than producing a stack of ware that people will use time and time again to nourish themselves. Spirals and radial patterns mimic so much of the natural world from galaxies to sunflowers to primal representations of the sun. #pottery #ceramics #handmade #beautility #FunctionalPottery #crafts
Here’s how the scoops turned out. They work really well with my kitchen crocks and the handles feel nice to hold. #beautility #functionalpottery #pottery #ceramics #keramik #terrasigillata #handmade
Working on a pair of #compost crocks (among other things) to hopefully be fired by the end of the month. We’ve outgrown our old one so one of these will be the replacement. They each hold somewhere around a gallon/4L. The double handles make them easy to carry & dump, and the lids fit snuggly. They’re sturdy pieces of functional ware, which also serve as decorative objects when not in use. I’m excited to see them glazed. #beautility #functionalpottery #gardening #permaculture #ceramics #pottery
