A sweet thing, a store jar or tea caddy, made using a high iron stoneware clay body and coated in a pale green feldspathic crackle glaze that has partly oxidised during the reduction firing to cone ten, (1290ºC), this leak of oxygen into the kiln creates this flash of yellow on the green, a tone that tends to be bookended by streaks of darker grey-green. A good pot for pouring things out of, pepper corns, coffee or salt, yet the opening is too narrow to fit your hand inside.

These pots are dishwasher safe and food safe, although please take care, washing by hand is the best option. All my pots are made with a high iron content clay body that is heavily reduction fired. This means that sharper edges can be susceptible to chipping if they’re bashed so please handle your pots with care. I personally always hand wash my handmade pottery and tend not to use them in microwaves. Remember, this isn’t mass produced factory ceramics, each pot is individual. Additionally, crackle glazes like this can stain naturally overtime with liquids such as tea or coffee. The pots themselves are highly vitrified and there’s nothing toxic or dangerous that can leach out from the crackle glazes. This is simply a byproduct of having such surfaces and you’ll find that crackle glazes, or crazing like this, can appear in wood fired pots, soda fired pots and salt fired wares too.
