About the Item

A further examination of "The Challis" these sculptural pieces are an offering, a gift, a ritual. Rather than a cup to be used it is a piece to be celebrated. Each one completely unique. Building on the beautiful dark brown clay body, these pieces go a step further, offering a fantastical interior to gaze upon. Growing up out of the Challis, there is beauty and desire, power and intent. The curious will look in, the satisfied will gaze from afar. All is good! To those who look closely they will be rewarded with the observable technique of the artist: finger marks, scraping, the pinching and forming of the raw clay, glaze added to the bare challis form. Again, no two could ever be the same and the uniqueness can be celebrated. Signed with Artist's signature chop underneath.
