Dream flower candle holder

This handcrafted and etched piece serves as a unique and impressive candleholder. The cut out squares are deceptive looking square from the outside then rounded from the inside, casting a wonderful reflection against a wall. These are some of my favorite pieces to do. The second picture shows the graduated blue to pooled white on the inside. This one is 5 inches high x 4.25 wide.

Available for the moment, at Etsy.

Kitchen Utensil Holder

This piece stands about 5.25 inches tall and 5.25 inches wide at the mouth. The glaze was a spattered assortment of Khakatile, Fat White, Apple Green Celadon and Iron Brown Black. Not sure I could get that effect again if I tried, but I was happy with the final product.

Not sure if I’m going to let this one leave the house yet. I’ve been throwing things bigger lately and I’m still grinning at the accomplishment.

I’ve got a few things waiting to go in the glaze kiln and several more pieces to glaze. I hope to share them with you soon.

One of my recent favorites.

This jar was done in a spodumene glaze with a touch of iron oxide around the rim, and some heavy splatters of teal, or one of the greens. Sized: 5 inches tall x 5.25 inches wide at widest point. I’m pretty sure I want to hold onto this one, at least for now.

The objective during my next session is to work on height in my pieces. Developing shapes from the basic cylinder.
