Soda Fired Tea Bowl by Popalini & Jezando

Soda Fired Tea Bowl by Popalini & Jezando
Hand Thrown in Devon
Approximate measurements: 5.5cm height x 11cm width. 170ml.

A beautifully formed footed Tea Bowl made from Cornish clay and wood fired with an iron coating and soda added during firing. The wider form sitting comfortably in the palm of your hand.

The iron coating giving purple and burnt umber tones with a soft metallic shine. A smooth, tactile feel to the bowl and in places the soda creates an orange peel texture. Inside, a mottled appearance falling to the moss green centre with a glassy crackle. This simplistic combination has created an amazing colouration and textural quality.

Popalini & Jezando are a collaborative creative force, with a studio on the Devon/Cornwall border, North Devon. Creating functional hand thrown stoneware pieces that are both contemporary yet steeped in ancient traditions of the area.

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