Slipware Jug

An off-white stoneware water jug with slipware details.

This piece has been thrown with a thin neck that is easy to grasp, offering an alternative to a handle. Techniques of slip-trailing and beading have been used to decorate the jug, giving it a tactile surface that also accentuates its form.

It is finished with a glossy transparent glaze on the outside, and a glossy white glaze inside. The two glazes meet around the rim of the piece, mixing together to create subtle speckling.
