This teapot features my FAVOURITE glaze work to date! The exquisite combination of a high-gloss, rich, black liquorice glaze with a splash of vibrant, variegated blue, produces depth through layers of colour and translucency. The overall effect is a stunning visual that is truly mesmerizing.
This is not just a teapot, it is a masterpiece!
I call it the βOctopus Relic Teapot.β The glaze work produces an ethereal quality to the aesthetic of the piece. The body, lid, and spout are wheel-thrown. The handle of the teapot is a bulbous, hand-built octopus head sculpture, with only partial remnants of tentacles; it reminds me of an old, antique treasure, lost at sea.Β
A perfect piece for both home use and gallery display.
