Sculpture / Non Functional

Earthenware Sea Globes are fired many times to create complex glazing designs that have been abstractly inspired by the coastline where I live and work.

This beautiful Sea Globe has a stunning combination of cobalt, turquoise, black and aventurine glazes fused together that create a flowing cascade down three quarters of the globe. The piece has been finished with gold detailing around the rim.

I complete very few Earthenware Sea Globes due to the success rate being low caused by the multiple firings and complex glazing designs. Each piece is unique and designed purely as a sculptural “objet d’art” and is not functional (i.e. should not be used as a vase).
