Hand built spiral stoneware cone jar

16″ Height X 14″ Width. Hand built spiral stoneware cone jar, gas- reduction fired to cone 10 cane.  These vessels are made by pinching long thin strips of wet clay in spirals together to build the form. I think of the pieces as having two parts to the shape: the spine, which curves around the whole vessel and the form underneath. There is something extremely meditative about building these vessels.
