I have used a gorgeous black clay for this piece, which fires almost black, dark chocolate brown. It's really beautiful.
The bowl has been formed using the pinch method, glazed in shiny speckled white and fired to 1200 degrees centigrade, making this strong and durable.
Please note that each decal on this piece has been individually cut by hand, adhered to the surface before moving on to the next decal. This is a time consuming piece as there are 8 individual decals. My handmade ceramics are priced to reflect the amount of time spent and materials used making each individual piece.
After two firings, the decals are applied to the bowl and then the piece is put back into the kiln for a third firing to fuse the decals to the surface.
This small dish measures approximately 9.5cm wide x 9.0cm deep x 3.8cm high
This has been made with care over several days and fired three times in the ceramic kiln.
Due to the handmade nature no two are identical, this adds to the charm of each piece.
