Serving Bowl

Wood fired serving bowl with a center of flowers and blue and white stripes. The flowers and stripes  are formed by a process called Nerikomi, an ancient Japanese decorative process.  Colored clay is shaped into a design, in this case, a flower and formed into a tube, called a cane.  The cane is sliced thinly in the cross section,  and this slice is inlayed into a slab of clay which is used to form the pot.

Approx. 12" diameter in this square bowl.  3" high.
