Planter: Watercolor Line (Small)
This one of a kind planter was wheel thrown with inlaid colored slips and then soda fired to create this incredible watercolor effect that shifts and changes around the piece.
A smidge over 4” tall and about 5” wide. Perfect for succulents or a small plant.
Each soda fired piece is one-of-a-kind as atmospheric firings are unpredictable and can yield stunning results. Soda firing takes an enormous amount of time, energy, labor and resources and is usually a community effort. In the soda firing process, soda ash is introduced to the atmosphere of the kiln when it is near peak temperature. The sodium vapor interacts with the clay, slips and glazes to create swirling unpredictable colors that shift and change around the piece. The marks on the bottom are from the wadding used to hold the piece up off the kiln shelf so that glaze drips won’t fuse it to the shelf. They can leave lovely flame marks and are a telltale sign a piece is soda fired, though they don’t always happen, especially in low soda areas of the kiln.
High temperature firings do have a tendency to warp pieces. The mouth of this planter is slightly oval. Your plants won’t mind.
