Wood Fired Porcelain Shino Covered Jar This covered jar is an excellent example of the movement and "frozen fluidity" that can be captured in clay. This jar also exemplifies the possibilities that can be achieved by the combination of ash and shino glaze on porcelain. The covered jar stands 6 inches tall and is about 5 inches wide. The jar was fired in the middle of the wood kiln and was fired for 3 days peaking at a temperature of 2400 degrees. Some of the unique aspects of this jar include the horizontal lines that ascend the jar, the strong vertical indentions that cascade the sides of the form, and the "wave like" distortions captured on the bottom of the form. It is important to note the three "tear drop dips" on the corners of the lid, which call attention to the vertical indentions. Another pleasing aspect of this jar is the warm earth tones found throughout the form. This piece is a wonderful example of wood fired art and will make an excellent addition to any collection. Price: $75 - PAYPAL CART * When purchasing this piece, there is a $15 shipping charge, which will include standard ground shipping, delivery confirmation, and insurance. |
