Container made of mixed earths, sandstone, clay and porcelain.
This piece was made by the artist without a potter's wheel. Which gives it a very mineral aspect. The lid is topped with a raw stone.
This sculpture/container can be displayed on its own. It can also be used to store teas, aromatic herbs or spices.
This piece is rough to the touch and features The minerals that go into the stoneware are melted during the high temperature firing, which gives this unique piece its black and charred appearance.
It catches the eye.
