Red Sea Foam Bowl (Second)
$110.00
Sold Out
This radiant red bowl has somehow managed to wrap a swath of the ocean around its side! Upon a closer look the white glaze has created an almost sea-shell like pattern when on its own and when intersecting with the red glaze a foaming effect occurred.
For its size this piece is quite lightweight and has a wonderful feel in the hand! This bowl also features a lot of different textures so it would be ideal for someone who appreciates pottery that is more tactile. It is smooth on the exterior side of the red glaze and has the uncanny feeling of a shells surface on the white glaze. The interior of this bowl is also quite smooth with an occasional patch of texture.
All of these "foam-like" spots on this piece are flat or slightly raised but pose not concern towards cracking or bursting. There was one at the very bottom that was slightly sharp and I sanded it down to insure there was no issue of causing harm-- there are slight scuff marks left over from sanding it down (see close up photo).
This bowl measures 5 inches in height and 11 inches in diameter!
*If liquid is left in this piece for an extended period of time the liquid will sweat out of the bottom. As that is not the typical result from this glaze the price has been reduced accordingly. However it is still food safe and would be ideal as a salad/serving bowl!*
This piece is food/microwave/dishwasher safe as well! To help bolster the likelihood of longevity with these pieces I typically differ to hand washing them but they will be fine in the dishwasher as well. Since the bottom of this piece is not glazed it could absorb dishwasher detergent and slightly discolor over time but that does not compromise the food-safety of this piece. It would only be an aesthetic embellishment. If you have any questions regarding food safety or otherwise, please feel free to reach out to me!
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!
