Wheel-thrown turquoise ceramic bell by Sakura Ceramics
This seasonal ceramic bell has been wheel-thrown in my home studio in Brighton, on the South-East coast of England. The bell is carved with seasonal patterns to catch the glaze as it melts. The bell is made upside-down on the potter's wheel and then trimmed to produce a beautifully rounded top. Handmade ceramic beads are used inside the bell to make it chime. Finally it is strung with delicate silk ribbon in matching colours. This bell would make a beautiful Christmas tree decoration or can be displayed all year round as an ornament.
The bell has been made using a smooth, off-white, stoneware clay. The exterior of the bell has been finished with a glossy, limited edition winter glaze, made in my studio. I'm excited to share this colour for the first time. My maker's mark has been stamped on a sakura shaped tag and attached to the ribbon of the bell.
Approximately 6-7cm tall and 6.5cm wide at the base of the bell.
