This a sculptured version of a carafe in red earthenware.
Careful enamelling creates a mat linear pattern which accentuates and continues the spout down to the container..
More architectural than most of my work, the piece derives its inspiration from the Russian constructivism movement.
The spout of the carafe is slab built, the elements being cut then glued.
The container is also slab built, stamped onto a counter plaster form, then removed from the mould, leather hard.
The two elements are then barbotine attached together.
Once dried and rubbed down, the piece is fired at 1000°C, then covered with a transparent enamelling.
