I am what is termed a “studio potter”. Among other forms, I enjoy working with bowl forms in their various guises. No two of my pieces are the same, even when working on a similar theme. It can take upwards of a week for me to make one piece. Any given piece may take several visits to the kiln before I get the color development that I want. I tend to treat each object that I make as an individual, rather than a “thing”. I only work with materials that I feel have a “spark” to them, a sort of “life force” element.

Another recently found item that I made 20 or so years ago that have been in storage all this time.
Thrown on my kick wheel in buff colored stoneware and glazed in metallic glazes, pale blue and gray. Smaller size is perfectly fine for holding fruit and other dry foods. There are metal oxides in some of the glazes, so no wet food. Perfect for potpourri, keys, your jewelry.....
2.5" high x 6.5" wide x 6.5" deep; 1/4" thick. Trimmed foot. Signed with Singh, and the date 1993 on the foot rim.
As with all handmade items: top of the dishwasher safe but happier to be hand washed.

2" high x 6 3/4" wide x 6 3/4" deep. Trimmed "foot". "Singh" scratched with a pin tool on the bottom. This was a demo piece for a beginners class I was teaching at the time. It is thicker than I usually like to throw, 3/8". And it weighs 12oz! Very sturdy!

Ingrid
$415.00
Ingrid - ONE OF A KIND (OOAK) small white porcelain bowl, hand made ceramic bowl, pottery bowl, with blue porcelain shards and genuine Lapis Lazuli gemstone inclusions. Rim has been "pinched" finished for textural effect. Pot is clear glazed.
7" x 7" x 4 3/4"
>Because of the inclusion of Lapis Lazuli in the clay, I would not recommend using this bowl for serving food. I don't know that it is unsafe, but I don't know that it is, either. Lapis Lazuli is not normally something human beings would eat, as far as I know. I am guessing here, but Lapis looks to me like it contains a good deal of copper, which possibly might leach into any food stored in the bowl.
I would call it dishwasher safe but happier to be hand washed.
I only made 3 bowls using these inclusions. Lapis Lazuli debris (left over from cutting gemstones) is not something I can get on a regular basis. This is the only one I have left. Each one was unique in shape and color.

5 1/2" X 5 1/2" X 5 1/16"
The color in this piece comes in several layers. Some of the white porcelain was colored with a lavender Mason stain. Then some ilmenite specks were wedged into the lavender porcelain. The lavender and white porcelain was then marbled together to make what I considered to be an interesting terrestrial reference. The piece was then glazed with a clear food safe glaze. Additional glazes in white and blue were then brushed around the rim to make the rain reference.
All my bowls are food safe unless otherwise noted. Signed and dated in ink on the bottom.

It will come with a ring base for stability, as was the common practice before feet were incorporated into vessel forms.

Emily
$173.05
Emily - Hand built small ceramic jar, pottery jar, hand made red earthenware coil and slab built ceramic pottery jar, Ikebana vase, small flower vase.
3 3/4" X 3 1/2" X 6"
Glaze on glaze decoration with glass runs in blue and white.
Normally a piece is fired twice: once for what is called the "bisque" fire and once for the glaze fire. Additional firings may be done if decals, China Paints, or lusters are being used.
If the potter is looking for something in particular, more than one glaze firings might be undertaken. It took 4 glaze firings to get the glaze interactions seen here. You can catch glimpses of the red earthenware through the glazes as well as the blues and white glazes that I used on this piece. The piece feels really good when held in your hands. The surface is smooth and glossy. I used a glass that had just a bit of cobalt blue in it for the glass runs. The color blended very well with the glaze colors.
All my bowls are food safe unless otherwise noted. In this case, I doubt it would be an issue. Signed and dated in ink on the bottom.

While most of my collectors use my things for display, some do use them for serving food. Therefore this bowl is food safe.
All my bowls are food safe unless otherwise noted. This one is quite large. Signed and dated.
I would recommend that you hand wash this bowl, both because the dish-washing detergent used in dish washers will etch glass and glazed items over time, and because of the size.
