Medium-sized vase perfect for a dining room table. I tied some silica-rich grass that was growing near the kiln around this one, and the grass has left some silver-white shiny marks across the exterior surface.
Clay body is Svend Bayer. The interior is glazed with a carbon trap shino, and the exterior is fully unglazed.
Stands approx. 16 cm tall and 10 cm wide.
Fired for 62 hours in the large anagama at Oxford Kilns.
Each pot experiences the anagama differently. Some areas get more ash, some get heavier reduction, and some have more shadows from their neighbouring pots. Shells, silica-rich grasses like mare’s tail, and nearby glazes have all left their marks on these pieces. As such, there is more variation in their texture and colour than you’d get in a standard gas or electric kiln.
I recommend handwashing woodfired work just for longevity’s sake. These pieces are fully vitrified (watertight) as they’ve been fired to cone 11/12. I’ve carefully washed and sanded each piece.
