This crack-textured bowl is both functional and artistic. The artist, Lars Turin, made this wheel-thrown bowl using his unique technique of crusting the surface of soft white stoneware clay with sodium silicate and a torch, and then stretching the still-soft clay to create controlled surface cracking. He then enhances the cracking with various colors and removes it from the smooth, white clay surface to create a dramatic contrast. On this piece the cracks are blue and the interior is finished with a smooth blue glaze. Signed by the artist.
