These dishes make great gifts, and they're eco friendly too. The combination of the gorgeous blue glaze and the melted glass in the bottom of this bowl reminds me of swimming in clear blue water on a hot day. I was so pleased with it that I had to keep one for myself!
It is glazed with my own special combination of ingredients to create this delicious, deep, tropical ocean colour. I recycled some glass from an empty bottle in the bottom of the pot and this has melted in the kiln and blended with the glaze to give a stunning crystalline watery effect. The glass forms a perfectly smooth surface to the bottom of the bowl, but beneath the surface it cracks and fragments. These cracks catch the light and sparkle like jewels.

It would make the perfect holder for a candle, it's great as a soap dish, or you could use it to keep rings and jewelry safe. I keep mine on my bathroom windowsill so that the crackles under the surface catch the sunlight and glisten.

It's delicate shape was given strength by my use of very strong, textured, creamy white clay, which I fired to stoneware temperature. I didn't glaze the outside, and added a little subtle fabric texture because I wanted the natural beauty of the clay to shine through and create contrast.

I made a few of these and each is unique. Please allow for very slight variation, but I promise yours will be very similar and equally stylish!
