Fossil

The "Fossil" series is inspired by Chinese porcelain where rice grains are set in the clay to make a translucent pattern. I experimented with various objects (dead and alive!) and ended up with fresh maple leaves. I cast these in the wet clay and then the leaves are burned away in the firing to create a fossil-like pattern.

I make this series with an optional silver rim but note that the silver rim will gradually wear away if frequently washed in the dishwasher.
