This cute little owl invites you to sit down and enjoy a relaxing taste of sake with your friends.  She has found a home but I would be glad to make one for you that is similar.

This sake set is made from white earthenware clay, it is food safe and could be put into the dishwasher if you must but if you ask her she will tell you that she would prefer to be hand washed.

Rather than using glaze the surface is treated with white terra sigillata (a solution made from the finest clay particles that leaves a sexy luster/sheen without the use of glaze) and the drawing is enhanced with dark brown stain and a dilute clear glaze.

The bottle holds 1 cup of liquid and is 5.5″ tall and each cup will hold 1/8th cup, so you can fill the cups up several times before the bottle is empty.

Clay?…Cloth?…

This bowl is hand built from wheel thrown parts with a handful of press molded elements taken from some of my favorite fabrics and sewing notions stirred into the mix.

Does butter fly?

This item has been sold, but I would be happy to custom make a similar one  just for you!

This little creature will guard your butter with her life, and look cheery and fanciful on your kitchen counter while she does it!

This butter dish is made from white earthenware clay, it is food safe and can be put into the dishwasher if you must but if you ask him he will tell you that he would prefer to be lovingly hand washed.

I used layers of engobes, staines and under glazes all sealed under a layer of thinned clear glaze to achieve the textures and patterns on this piece.

The dish holds 1/2 a stick of butter is 3″tall and 4″ wide.
