Coiled Basket, Dish, Tray
Description
A lot of thought went into creating this pine needle dish. 'Verdigris Vixen' combines contemporary flair with the classic look of weathered copper. It started with one of my bases, fired with a food-safe verdigris glaze to stoneware in my own small kiln.The pine needle coiling features intact caps, followed by three rows of copper beads which are added to each stitch. (With each bead the needle must be removed and re threaded to make the stitch. There isn't a needle with an eye that will both accommodate the bead hole size and make it through the tightly bound pine needle coils without breaking!)
Notice the lovely swirling pattern that the Irish waxed linen thread creates as it tightly binds one row to the other. The basket ends with a row of hand painted pine needle caps and is embellished with copper beads and peacock feathers on the rim. If you'll look closely there is a natural dot of color on one of the feathers that matches the verdigris of the dish!
Combining several design elements that all work together makes this is very special little piece for someone who appreciates fine work and attention to detail. It's my hope that someone will love it as much as I enjoyed creating it!
