AT LEAST IT'S NOT GREEN

I am not 100% sure but I think this as out of my last stoneware/ porcelain/ small batch kiln that I fired for 2024. Not particularly large, the body was thrown to resemble one of my teabowl shapes with a set in lid and large, hollow thrown knob that is quite easy to grasp. The surface of the covered jar and most of the lid is covered in thick white slip and was then combed, kushime style to create a lot of texture over which this honey amber was used. Though hard to see, the surface was covered in the slightest coating of black iron oxide to create a dusky and slightly droozy surface which I personally think adds a layer to the piece. I really love making covered pots and this moderate sized piece is good for a wide array of uses and let's be honest, at least it's not green.
