Woodfired Ash & Celadon Low Shiboridashi (2) by Linda Unsworth
Hand Thrown in Pembrokeshire, Wales
Approx measurements: 7cm H x13.5cm ø 150ml.

An elegant wood fired stoneware Shiboridashi with a low, wide and gently rising balanced form. Glazed with a greenish ash celadon giving it a calming natural feel, tone and fine crackle that contrasts neatly with the flame flashed raw clay of the foot and around the inner lip. This vessel has a particularly earthy hue and speckled lid which is a nice touch. Ash glazed interior. The surface is full of complex granite inclusions creating an interesting natural speckling, overall bright and light aesthetic - it has a soft shine and smooth feel making the vessel easy to handle and an absolute joy to use. 

One off piece. Handwash recommended.

Based in North Pembrokeshire, producing work from her home studio.
Linda is a self taught potter, who enjoys the meditative experience that’s created by working with such natural elements as raw clay, glazes and the rhythm of her momentum wheel. Producing beautiful wood fired ceramics that really highlight this long process leaving visible traces of flame flashes and fly ash on her pots. Her approach to the form and style of her work is inspired by her natural surroundings and informed by Eastern aesthetics through traditional Japanese & Korean pottery and philosophy and her love of tea drinking.
