These bowls perfect for serving stew, soup, or main dishes. They also are beautiful pieces to use for decor, fruit, or candles. Made with textured hand-rolled pieces of clay, torn to resemble fabric and put together like a patchwork quilt, these bowls have a rich under-texture and a smooth inner surface. Fired at con10, these bowls are food-safe, oven-safe, microwave-safe and freezer-safe. Their heavy weight adds a touch of quality and grounded-ness. Amador clay with BTC glaze.
I use the term “pottery” instead of “ceramics,” to describe my work, as the term conjures handmade, more ancient methods of clay work rather than modern or more refined techniques. I want to celebrate the human touch on the clay, and as such, my pottery has an intentionality in the imperfections. Since I have launched my work as a potter after my 2016 name change, this is the ONLY medium that is signed “ND” on the bottom of the work, to honor my legal name Nkechi Diallo. My fine art career in painting, drawing, cut paper, and sculpture began in my teens, and I continue to sign my birth name Rachel Dolezal, or “RD” for those bodies of work, for continuity purposes. Each piece of pottery is hand made, dried, fired, glazed, and re-fired at cone10, which is the hottest kiln. The glazes chosen are food-safe, and these pieces may be used in the oven, microwave, fridge or freezer safely.
