    Ceramic-slab Petal Bowls

        Stoneware clay bowls with durable, high-fired glaze

After practically growing up in the pottery studio, I began my own line of bowls in 2005.

I join clay slabs together to create an open corolla of petals, which is held up from its surface by a ring of sturdy feet.
