Bronze Bowl

$90.00
Sold Out
This bronze bowl has a wonderful luster to its surface. The glaze settled into the grooves of the throwing rings left behind, which I always to be a wonderful detail in a piece of pottery. It is a grounding reminder of the handmade quality imbued in an object.

On the very bottom of this piece there is a textured pattern caused by an effect called, “chattering.” Chattering occurs during the trimming state when the clay is leather-hard. When the wheel is spinning fast and the trimming tool is held lightly the opposing forces can cause dissonance resulting in the tool jumping rapidly causing irreplicable patterns. I always love when this happens and I treat the moment as a gift! I always look o leave the pattern if it decides to happen while trimming.

This glaze has a satin-mat texture to it, which feels very satisfying in the hand. Additionally it is fairly lightweight!

This piece is also food/microwave safe as well! Since it is not glazed on the bottom if it were put in the dishwasher, detergent could soak into the exposed clay and over a period of time it would begin to discolor. However, this does not compromise the food safety of this piece, that would just be an aesthetic embellishment.

This bowl measures 9.25 inches in diameter and 4.5 inches in height. This would work wonderfully as a serving bowl, a large personal bowl or a decorative piece.

As the environment is a large portion of the inspiration in my work, it is also on the forefront of my mind when considering shipping, which is why I make sure to use 100% recyclable materials. The packing tape is water activated, which creates a permanent seal to the box and helps reduce the amount of tape I use (and since the tape is 100% recyclable/biodegradable, it can be recycled with the box itself!). I use a thermal printer to print out my shipping labels (using no ink cartridges) and the backing of the labels are also recyclable. Lastly, to ensure that packages arrive to you safely I take great care in packing up my items to send. I use paper-packing materials are all 100% recyclable and I reuse post-consumer packing materials whenever I can!

Along with the wonderfully grounding feeling of experiencing a handmade object, I feel that it is also my responsibility as an artist and a maker to provide you with piece of mind into the steps I’ve taken to reduce the amount of waste produced from my shop. The earth provides us with marvel and beauty and I believe that through measures such as these, we get a little bit closer to experiencing our own personal fifth season.

Thank you very much for having a look at this unique piece!

If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me.

Warmly,
