Lively Lidded Vessel, Butterdrip Corkscrew

Description

Lively Lidded Vessel "Butter Drip Corkscrew" is part of my signature works.

SHELF is available separately from http://www.jwhitney100.etsy.com

They continue to grow taller and livelier every time I sit down to work through a piece. I throw them on the wheel and then alter them through hand work, pulling, setting, forming. This particular piece I call "Butter Drip Corkscrew". It's approximately 11" in height and 6" at its widest part. The lid has a flange underneath that adds weight and stabilizes the elongated form above.

I created "Butter Drip Corkscrew" in stoneware, fired to 2300F (cone 10) with a layering of black and cream glaze on the base and the cream glaze on the lid. I fire this one in the bottom of my gas kiln, in an oxidized atmosphere, rather than reduction atmosphere.

I have shipped these internationally with no breakage. They are double packed, first in tubes, then in boxes. The 4th picture is an example of the gift wrapping and tube packing.
Please contact me through "conversations" first regarding international shipping as I'd be more than happy to set that up
