Handmade Trinket Bowls (black)
Quick Overview
I've finally gotten around to learning how to form a bowl from clay with my own hands, and then paint my own image onto it! Its been a learning curve, and I don't think you can ever know everything about ceramics even if you spend your whole life doing it! But I'm looking forward to learning and doing more!
These are small trinket bowls, made from earthenware clay. Images are painted with black underglaze and then scratched to get the fine detail - a technique called sgrafitto, which I absoloutely love.
Some have a proverb or idiom running along the bottom. They are all one of a kind:)
approx 11,5 W x 4,5 H cm

Handmade and handpainted, these little bowls are all complete one-offs, and have been a joy to make. Some have an idiom or proverb painted along the bottom, and are small individual artworks. Painted with lovely rich blue cobalt powder and using a technique called sgrafitto to scratch out the detail has had me finding my old self again:)
