About the Item
From his studio in Consecon Ontario, Bill Greaves creates hand-formed vessels that honour the ancient material and tradition. Each vessel is formed by coiling, scraping, and carving clay into a voluptuous textured shape. This large outdoor vessel has a gorgeous blue-green colour on the exterior; the interior is a natural clay colour. Greaves likes to glaze his work applied with a dry brush to create a rich matte surface. Surprise! A small ‘snake’ appears to be coiled at the bottom of the vessel. One of a series.
“Clay…it’s literally ground down rock and it took millions of years for it to form. That’s a huge continuum of time that humans manipulate for a moment.” Bill Greaves
Originally trained as an architect at Yale University, Bill studied ceramics at Alex Yeung Studio in Toronto from 2017-2019. His work is featured in numerous galleries in Ontario.

"Queen Amazon, " Ceramic Vessel
Located in Westport, CT
This crystalline glazed porcelain vessel by Jon Puzzuoli features an earthy green and sand-toned palette and a dark, narrow neck. The crystalline glaze over the surface creates the aesthetic of green "crystals" which form along the the surface of the piece. The artist's stamp can be found at the base of the vessel.
Crystalline glazes are special ceramic glazes in which zinc-silicate crystals grow inside the glaze while it is still very hot. The crystals begin as microscopic seeds in the glaze, which form in random numbers and locations. When the kiln is cooled to the proper temperature, crystals start to grow.
In order for crystals to grow, the glaze must be very fluid. Much of the glaze runs off the vessel during the firing into a catch basin...
