Description: A medium noodle/soup bowl.
Sister to No6 Winter Joy Bowl it has a slightly deeper winter hue. Turquoise's and a full winter tide yet teeming with underwater life.
It features winter blues and some green toward the shore as the rich glaze waves slip quietly onto the beach at the base of the bowl ever so slightly.
Again when inside the colours are rich. More bluey muted—Turning to darker blues and turquoises.
It's a very therapeutic bowl. And it seems to hum with pulsing life, even if it's cold outside.
See the same bowl inside and outside—In the garden photos this morning!
Material: 100% clay. Biscuit fired, then glazed and into a last firing to set the glazing process.
Microwave Safe: Yes indeed.
Size: Height—5.7cm. Width—12.6cm

The Japanese concept of "perfect imperfection" is deeply rooted in the philosophy of Wabi-Sabi and the art of Kintsugi, both of which celebrate imperfection, impermanence, and the beauty of flaws.
I like that!
So please note if you see something quirky, slightly off or 'less than perfect'... too big. Too small in my work.
Or with some 'flaw' in when viewed by modern sensibilities, that I don't see them that way at all.
I view them more as aspects of 'Perfect Imperfection'.
I hope you do too, though if not that's fine too... it just means that piece is not meant for you :)
(I reject a lot of pieces before I release a collection. The ones that make it are those I feel will bring beauty to the homes they go to).
COLOUR NOTES:
The colours of my ceramics change throughout the day—Sometimes appearing darker or lighter, sparkling or rich, soothing or vibrant.
This transformation depends on the weather, the season, and the quality of light surrounding them.
So matter how carefully I photograph each piece, the camera can't do justice to this dynamic quality.
All photographs are taken in natural light without extra enhancement. You may even notice colour variations within the same series of photos—This is due to changing light conditions during the photography session.
Important Display Considerations
Please be aware colours shown on your screen are only an approximation of the actual piece.
Different devices—whether mobile phones, laptops, or tablets—display colours differently due to varying screen settings. What appears blue on one device might look green or turquoise on another.
