About MeThese three saltglazed stoneware vessels are from the Empty Vessels series by Jane Hamlyn.

The wheel-thrown cylinders were tilted, cut and joined to a base.

Primavera is heavily salt-glazed and was fired in an oil-fired kiln at 1280 degrees Celsius.

Orange & Lemon Counterpoint consists of two lightly salt-glazed vessels that were fired in a gas kiln.
