Sculptural centre-piece planter. This large piece showcases the layering of slip (recycled liquid clay) paired with hand-carved textures using oyster shells. It incorporates fired oyster shells, reduced to a fine powder, which is applied to the wet clay surface. Waste oyster shells provided by the Wright Bros. restaurants in London.
Reactive glazes, sponsored by Mayco, flow across the surface to mimic water, creating dynamic colours and textures. The interaction between the glazes and the powdered oyster shells not only enhances the sense of fluidity but also introduces a rich, deep green tone.
Size: approx. 500mmDIA x 400mmH

All purchases will be posted / available for collection from my studio in Berkhamsted. Please email me to arrange collection.
Every planter features a drainage hole for outdoor use. I'm available for commissions to create indoor substitutes for all works.
This item is crafted from high thermo-shock stoneware clay; however, it has yet to be tested for frost resistance. It is important to consider the potential effects of frost exposure on the durability and performance of the material. Proper care and storage may help mitigate any risks associated with temperature fluctuations.
