A round-bellied gravy boat, perfect at the table for the serving of gravy to accompany a roast, sauces such as tartar sauce and remoulade, or a freshly made custard. A large opening allows for the whisking of ingredients directly in the pot, and is great for thicker sauces. Hand thrown by Simon Horton and reduction fired in South Oxfordshire in a small gas kiln of his own making. Glazed to the interior in a homemade celadon, producing a glossy blue-grey with speckles of dark brown, characteristic of reduction firing. The unglazed exterior develops a beautiful toasted colour in the kiln. With an admiration for pots quiet, understated and modest, Simon finds inspiration from medieval slipware to early Chinese and Korean pottery and feeds this back into his work. Height of 11cm, and a diameter of 12cm, approximately.
