Eddie Curtis, England.

A dynamic oval in a rugged, lithic finish, made by the highly acclaimed studio potter, Eddie Curtis.

Born from a love of bonsai, and a lifetime mastering studio pottery, this shohin sized oval was expertly formed and simply oozes with character. The remarkable rugged, seemingly lithic aesthetic was achieved through meticulous sculptural work and a number of textural and glaze techniques.

Using a variety of methods to create the varied textured surfaces, the artist has given the pot a tactile and very natural look, which is further enhanced by the effective use of glaze techniques including glaze layering, and glaze effects such as kairagi you (crawling glaze).

With a generous planting depth, excellent movement, and rugged finish, the pot would suit perfectly a variety of conifers and other trees with masculine features.

Stamped by the artist.

External measurements: 18cm (l) x 15cm (w) x 7.5cm (h).
