About MeThis slip cast stoneware bottle was cast from a found Buckfast bottle and is glazed in a 'fake' ash blue glaze developed by Kevin Andrew Morris. It was inspired by his interest in atmospheric firing and his desire to achieve a surface that looked like a salt-fired ceramic but was achieved using an electric kiln.
