Gold and White Altered Double Wall Vessel

Double walled hollow vessel thrown by hand on the pottery wheel. It has been scored and deformed to create lines in the side walls. Glazed on top with black gold colour which leaves a gold flecked surface like it's been dusted with gold leaf. The main body is glazed in an off white. Where the vessel has been scored the black gold glaze has started to run down creating additional interest. Not designed with any specific purpose but looks visually stunning on a shelf or sideboard; each piece is unique. Thrown in one piece on the wheel these vessels start life upside down where two walls are pulled up and joined together leaving an empty void in between similar to how a thermos flask looks. This is then manipulated to create the form shown. Further trimming refines the shape. It is then bisque fired, glazed and then fired up to 1260'C. Size: 6cm tall, 8cm wide The piece has a small pin hole in the base. This allowed air to escape during the drying and firing processes to stop the piece exploding.
