A striking example of late 20th-century British studio pottery, this raku-fired vessel features a sculptural globular form finished in an off-white crackle glaze. A bold vertical cobalt-blue band runs through the body, framed by dark, smoke-carbonised edges created during the raku firing process.
The surface displays characteristic crackling and tonal variation, entirely intentional and integral to the raku technique. The base is left unglazed and bears an incised potter’s mark, indicating studio origin, though the maker remains unidentified.
An individual and highly decorative piece, equally suited to a contemporary interior or a curated studio pottery collection.
