Terracotta, steel staples
4.5 x 3.5 x 2.25 in
This small-scale piece has steel nails inserted into the clay before firing. They oxidize slightly in the glaze firing, providing a rich dark patina.
All of the clay components are slab-constructed terracotta, finished in low-fire oxidation. Each piece is fired at least twice. The unique surfaces are generated by means of layering: of multiple glazes or glazes applied over liquid clay slips. Other materials are noted where used. All dimensions are height x width x depth.
