About MeThis slip cast stoneware hexagonal decorative jar was cast from a Suntory gin bottle and is glazed in a green 'fake' ash 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.Richard Batterham
