About MeThis hexagonal slip cast earthenware sculpture is in the shape of a pencil. It is in two hollow parts which can be placed together with the ends touching. The sculpture is decorated with gold and platinum lustre added on top of the initial clear glaze.The base is rounded so the pencil does not stand up vertically, it needs to be laid horizontally on its side.
