Ceramic Bottle Vase

Hand thrown and finished on the pottery wheel. Made with red stoneware clay and glazed in a deep rich iron red glaze, there is a variation on the glaze surface, showcasing movement in the pot. Fired in an electric kiln to 1260 degrees, this mottled red bud vase bottle is perfect to display your seasonal flowers.

Approximate size: W 9.5 cm x D 9 cm x H 9.5 cm

All items are dishwasher safe but hand washing is recommended.

Every piece of hand made pottery is totally unique and has it own personality. Pieces sold are very similar to the piece shown in the photo but not identical, as they are handmade pieces.
Grace's work is simple, functional and beautiful.

About the maker.

Grace McCarthy has been making ceramics for the past 10 years. She was part of the first cohort at Clay College Stoke, a course developed from a successful apprenticeship scheme which aims to train the next generation of studio potters. Whilst studying there, she learned a great number of skills and firing techniques that have changed and developed her work greatly. 

A lot of what influences her work is the raw clay and the firing process; the relationship between both of these elements is what excites Grace about ceramics. Seeing how one reacts to the other. She loves capturing this in the functional pottery that she makes.

Following Three Dimensional Design at Camberwell College of Art where Grace was able to explore a range of materials, in her final year, she became particularly interested in ceramics. After graduation, she became a technician at Turning Earth whilst selling her work all over the UK further afield.
