Low Spherical Blindfolded Vase
$50.00
Sold Out
This spherical vase has a wonderful light-weight feel to it! If you are a bronze lover, this piece might be just right for you! I fired this piece twice and was pleasantly surprised to learn that a double firing with this glaze will yield a more tanned, iridescent bronze. And through all of that firing, you can still see a patch of unglazed clay that I left exposed on this piece!
This piece had a small chip in it from something falling on it, which is why I decided to reglaze that portion and fire it a second time. The chip is now a small divot (see picture) and the price as been reduced accordingly.
Each week I throw pottery blindfolded in a livestream on Reddit, and this piece was one of the ones that made it off of the wheel. On the bottom of the piece, above my maker's mark, there is the word "blind" indicating that it was made blindfolded. Interacting with clay in that capacity is just so much fun and I am so excited to be offering up this 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 item 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!
