Description

This extraordinary quadrilobe sphere wrapped in an irregular strip of clay hints at an opening seed pod. It conveys the impression of life coming into being, a concept that frequently found expression in objects of this era. It is decorated with a copper-red glaze that puddles and sheds in response to the hills and valleys of clay. Turquoise and ochre marbling adds visual appeal.
