Bowl

USA, 1961
<p>This bowl rests on a short thick stem. The bowl is made of rectangular slabs that are attached side by side to the top of the stem in 2 rows, one above the other. The slabs don't always meet side by side at the irregular rim. The interior of the bowl is light grey, the bottom is dark brown. There are two flashes of blue on one of the rectangles. The exterior is brown.</p><p>The brown exterior color ends just below where the bowl meets the stem. The stem is the same grey as on the interior. Diagonal lines, like shoe laces, cross where the slab is joined to form the stem.</p><p>A view from above, the slabs are attached to the brown bottom of the bowl. The slabs are different lengths creating an irregular rim. The two blue flashes are in the lower left.</p><p>A close up side view of the stem shows the diagonal lines at the slab seam. There is a rough band of metalic brown where the stem and bowl meet.</p><p>A detail showing the unglazed foot of the stem and the grey exterior and interior of the stem.</p>
