Tall Vessel, with Piwakawaka pair, gold at rim and the inscription
Believe in Yourself - Mauria te Pono
This beautiful vessel has been handcrafted using the traditional slab and coil ceramic method. Its natural organic shape and textured surface are the result of this careful process.
After being hand-painted and etched, through a technique called sgraffito, it has been fired twice in the kiln - firstly to harden the painting and clay, then again to create the lustrous golden interior.
No two vessels can ever be the same, unique and one of a kind, a special and meaningful piece.
