Porcelain Pottery Footed Bowl with Black and Gold Butterflies
This is an elegant footed bowl decorated with black and 22k gold butterflies. A limited series in 2023. The butterfly is a symbol of Mother in asian cultures. I made this out of a white porcelain clay body. I threw it on the potter's wheel. The exterior decoration is a transfer technique which is a silkscreening technique of black butterflies as well as many overglaze gold decals of butterflies sealed permanently on in a third kiln firing. The patterns are sealed permanently into the clay by the glazing process. A clear glaze is over the entire piece. Please appreciate the slight variations and imperfections that are the signs of hand made pottery. This pot is approximately 5.5" tall x8" wide(exterior measurement). Signed "Sullivan, Canada" on the bottom.
