Smoke Fired-Lidded Jar IV
Each listing is for a specific jar, photographed from several sides and angles.
Measure approximately 4 1/2” across and tall.
These pit fired pieces are something quite special. The materials included in each firing vary throughout the season. The latest small batch utilized what is listed below as combustibles as well as fine filaments of steel wool and copper wire which offer flecks and scatterings of metallic impressions, most often in a rust color.
Thrown in a light porcelain stoneware combined clay and fired once in the studio kiln, draped in organic material from the chicken coop: wood shavings, droppings, errant feathers, grain and seeds, clippings from the garden, and the occassional metal filings, tucked into individual pouches of aluminum then fired in the studio yard pit where the combustibles ignite to create layers and depth, marking and masking in turn, smoke penetrating bare clay leaving abstract impressions and manifesting a galaxy in a single pot.
Pit fired pottery is unglazed and the interiors coated in a watertight sealant suitable for food use. Exteriors are waxed and buffed.
