About the Item

One of a trio of fully hand built ceramic TOTEMS in matte black under glazed stoneware. This one, "Take a Bite" has a small arc-like bite at the top. They each have their own personality which occurs when clay is hand-formed into shapes, connected together, and fired in a hot kiln. The surface is textured and coated with underglaze, giving the impression of black clay. Pictured below with 2 sister pieces: "Tall Feather" and "First Walk on the Moon". All available to order. Same 7-8 week lead time. Signed with Artist's signature chop underneath.
