clay: cone 10 urn/vase (coil pot)

Clay Body: Laguna's Bmix 10 (Smooth)

Glaze: Marshamallow or cone 10 matte white glaze

Method/Firing: Coil built/Cone 10 Reduction

Of late, I'm in love with extruded coils and pinch potting to make this pot. I've been mimicking Frances Palmer's forms, and on this vase I used a loop tool to flute the smoothed coils and erected slabs to form the base and rolled balls to adorn the rim. The handles were from the extruded coils. Hubs likes it, he says, though I am putting in a plastic cage or some chicken wire inside to hold stems.
