Jack Welbourne Faceted Bowl, Ash & Iron

A hand thrown mid-sized table bowl with an ash glaze to the interior, and lip, and iron to the exterior. The sides of the bowl have been hand carved to create a beautiful faceted form. After training in Cardiff and Gothenburg, Sweden, Welbourne set up studio in Cardiff, where he produces wheel-thrown stoneware in red Cornish clay, gas-fired using glazes mixed in his studio (sometimes using materials dug locally, combined with potash, chalk, iron oxide and flint). Jack is inspired by the concave curvatures of neolithic Chinese and early Korean clayware. Measures very approximately 18.5cm diameter, by 9cm high.
