these pieces are all one of a kind, clay, finished un-fired + burnished.
hand built, coiled ceramic paperclay. since not fired, not vitrified, so not ceramic.
some were created as standing vessels then turned into pendant lights. some created as pendant lights right away.
care + if broken::
dry dusting:
handle edges with extreme care
these are not fired so they should not be cleaned with water or anything wet. dry dusting is the way.
if broken*:
since these vessels are not fired they can be repaired with water and slip (a mixture of clay and water)! It will change the form a bit but that is the nature of these organic vessels.
*contact me and we'll discuss how to do this e.g. if we are in the same town I'll either come and repair it where it is, or will pick it up and repair, OR we'll discuss shipping and repair in my studio.
