Mine Vessel (Bud Vase)

A gutsy little vessel with attitude that says ‘untrustworthy and dangerous’ but possibly just wants to cradle a few stems of flowers for you on the coffee table

190mm H x 110mm W

$250

I design, assemble, glaze and fire each piece in my home studio. I make all my own molds from hand-sculpted shapes and found objects. These form the various components that come together to make one vessel.

I use a porcelain clay slip and mix my own colours using stains and some commercial glazes and lusters.

Each piece takes many hours of hands-on time as well as 3-5 firings to complete. Because my vessels are 100% handmade, no two are identical and slight imperfections are part and parcel of each object. Each vessel is fired to 2160°F (1185°C) in an electric kiln and safe for functional use.
