Glazed Slate Bowl
Glazed Slate Bowl
Leighan Thomas is a contemporary potter based in Oxfordshire. Her approach to making reflects her tastes in quietly muted, simply functional pieces. An exploration into clay makes Leighan's work ever playful with a grown up aesthetic. Raw earthiness meets smooth lively glazes in an amalgamation of process and ideas.
The glazed interior of this bowl is wild, bursting from autumnal ambers to emerald greens. An extremely deep and rich interior is starkly contrasted by a muted slate like exterior. The wild of the patterning from the uncontrollable glaze makes the controlled patterning of the linear exterior all the more striking. A wonderful balance of contrasts makes this bowl an unusual and unique object to be admired.
