This hand-thrown footed bowl is made from dark iron-rich stoneware, chosen for its warm earthy tones and robust character. A herringbone pattern of slip, enhanced with touches of cobalt, wraps around the body, while a raised band beneath the rim introduces an additional layer of texture and visual interest. The gently tapering foot lifts the form, giving it a sense of lightness and balance.
Drawing inspiration from Japanese tea bowls and the British studio pottery movement, the piece celebrates the beauty of hand-crafted ceramics. The contrast between the dark clay, slip decoration and subtle cobalt highlights creates a surface that rewards close inspection.
Measurements: Approx.70mm high × c.110mm diameter at the rim with a 55mm foot.
Unsigned, c.1960s–70s.
Condition: Very good, with no chips or cracks.
Price: £35
