Keywords
This salt glazed stoneware teapot has spiralling notched lines created by pressing into the body with a roulette before firing. The crisp linear effects on the handle and knob are the result of rolling the clay on a surface with a defined pattern.
More About Me
The shiny and slightly orange peel-like texture is produced when common salt is thrown into the kiln during firing.
