Porcelain Pottery Footed Bowl with Blue and Gold Butterflies
NEW PATTERN. A limited edition series. The butterfly is a symbol for Mother in Asian cultures.
The Butterfly Effect: we are all connected to a bigger system. This is my positivist take.
This is an elegant shape decorated with 22k gold butterlies and NEW full colour butterflies in a painterly style. I made this out of a white porcelain clay body. I threw it on the potter's wheel in 2 pieces and joined those pieces when the clay was still wet. A clear glaze is over the entire piece. The exterior decoration was achieved totally in a third firing of overglaze gold decals and full colour butterflies decals. The patterns are sealed permanently into the clay by the firing process. THE GOLD MAKES THIS NOT MICROWAVE SAFE. Please appreciate the slight variations and imperfections that are the signs of hand made pottery. This pot is approximately 3" tall x 7.5" wide(exterior measurement). Signed "Sullivan, Canada" on the bottom.
