Each swirl catches and holds the light differently, creating an ever-changing play of shadows and highlights that makes this handcrafted piece as captivating to touch as it is to behold. Great for holding jewelry, small trinkets, dips or sauces, or as an ashtray.

The creation process:
1. I threw the piece on a pottery wheel, then created the circle design
2. After drying for 2-3 days, I trimmed excess clay off of the piece.
3. After reaching the bone-dry stage, the piece was bisque fired in the kiln.
4. The piece was washed, then glazed.
6. The piece was fired in the kiln for a second time at cone 6.
7. It makes its way (hopefully) to your home! 🙂
