Ceramic pottery 5" x 5" pitcher from the mid 1900"s. Tag on bottom - "UCTCI" and smaller "JAPAN". Thrift store find. May 2012.
My very first piece made at pottery class using the coiling method. And it's one of my favourite pieces to date :o)
First I made digital collage, and printed out same size with the physical plate. Then pierced small holes on out-lines for tracing.
In a village in Moldova every year there is a fair of pottery and potters. They do some great things from clay: dishes, toys.
This one has a sad story to it. I had used coils to create a flower on the front but while sandpapering the piece before glazing, I was a lil gungho and broke the flower. So had to sand that part down and it's just a boring container :o(
