Sunday, November 17, 2024

Works in progress: these bisqueware turtles and gators have been stained with iron oxide. Now they'll be glazed and fired.

Jim Fineman: Stoneware bowls, plates, mugs, tumblers, lamps, planters, jars, vases, candle lanterns, votives, colanders, pitchers, wine chillers, honey pots, sauceboats, cheese shakers, crocks, jugs, decanters, flower pots, oil lamps, candleholders, mirror frames, soap dishes, spoon rests, pour bottles, salt shakers, birdhouses, fountains, ornaments and clocks are produced, along with porcelain earrings, pins, and necklaces. Glazes range from earth tones to rich blues and greens. Decorations include painted patterns, leaf imprints, carving, and appliqués. Baskets are woven with reed and sea grass. Onion and garlic baskets are the specialty, with larger forms - egg and potato baskets - produced occasionally.
