Wheel thrown, off-white pitcher/jug, illustrated and sgraffito by hand a trout, fisherman, fishing flies (note this is an original piece of work, no transfers, decals etc are used). The jug is finished with an all-over clear glaze, it was fired twice in my kiln to over 1100 degrees centigrade. The material I used was terracotta clay, white slip and coloured underglazes and slips, the glaze is lead-free. It is very much a natural, handmade and rustic piece, ideal for a country cottage setting or dresser. The finish is smooth, though in some areas, a little sgraffito texture may be felt (which adds to the tactile qualities of the piece). One of my great loves was fishing and fly-fishing for trout in Devon and Somerset are some of my happiest memories, I hope some of that joy comes through in this handmade and illustrated piece. Fishing is a theme I come back to from time to time, but each piece of pottery is always different. Ideal for flowers or floral decoration, as a centrepiece or indeed, as a functional water jug.
