This understated stoneware footed teabowl has a simple and honest feel to it. Gently tapered body with an angular cut at the base descending to the foot giving this bowl a classic form, decorated with a carved linear pattern in three bands, creating a smooth yet tactile surface, the Ash glaze shines a bright and fresh blueish white tone with even speckles and soft shine.  Good size and proportions for a regular go to cup.

Anja is an East Devon based Ceramicist working with clay since 2012, going under the moniker of Streetdog Pottery with a studio in Colyton, producing a variety of porcelain and stoneware vessels and teaware. 

Anja’s work leans into the organic creative process celebrating the energy and movement within these simplistic forms. Experimenting with the nature of a wide variety of clays from Porcelain to Sculptural clays, Anja enjoys manipulating the clay body to it’s limits, drawing the clay thinly to rips and tears. whilst also favouring natural and aging patinas, Anja makes her own Celadon glazes and Ash recipes, burnt from different trees and plants, and explores different techniques to achieve this effect on the surface of the form through a combination of glazes application and mark making. 

Each handmade and unique, therefore slight variations in shape, size and glaze will occur. Handwash recommended.
