EVERYONE'S FAVORITE POLYGON
While
throwing either an order or a commission a few weeks back I took the time and
made a square and a hexagonal teabowl to end my day on my own terms as what could
be more exciting than creating a six sided polygon, everyone's favorite shape?
Illustrated is the hexagonal bowl decorated in Narumi-Oribe style with rubbed
iron panels with black decoration and sgraffito under a clear glaze with the
remainder of the bowl glaze in Oribe. My goal was to get strong, accentuated
lines between each plane of the hexagon and a good contrast between the clear
and Oribe panels, I think I succeeded in my goal with that distinct contrast
and absolutely no crawling from any surface incompatibility, for one of a series
of one, this is about the best outcome I could have asked for.
