Saggar Donut Vase

I spend intimate time crafting each individual piece. This item is hand thrown and turned on the potter's wheel, with hand dipped or brushed glaze application. The nature of our goods allows for slight variances among sets being sold, glaze colors, shapes, and sizes. Not one piece is exactly like the next. This characteristic is looked upon with delight from the artist, being able to give each customer a very special creation just for them.

The saggar pottery technique is a process used to create unique and unpredictable surface effects on ceramic pieces. The technique involves placing a ceramic object inside a protective container, called a saggar, along with various organic materials, such as sawdust, salt, metals, and other substances that react with the clay during firing.

The saggar is then sealed and placed in the kiln for firing. During the firing process, the organic materials inside the saggar produce volatile gases that interact with the clay, creating unique and unpredictable patterns and colors on the surface of the pottery.

This piece IS NOT food safe. We recommend cleaning gently with wet cloth.
