Item Description

Ceramic

2.5" x 13.5" x 13.5"

Lindsey Epstein resides in Tiverton, RI where she now creates work from her studio. She has always enjoyed the outdoors, gardening and nature. Over the past 22 years, she has enjoyed exploring the limits of clay only to find that there are few. She is constantly excited by new possibilities and glaze techniques. Nature and animals are a recurring influence in how the piece moves or is decorated. In her "spare" time, she tends to her gardens and vegetables, and trains horses.

This bowl was thrown on the potter's wheel by Lindsey from porcelain clay. The flower looking structures on the bowl are zinc crystals that were grown during the firing process. The crystal patterns and shapes are unpredictable - each piece is completely unique. The crystals grow due to the chemistry of the glaze and firing scheduled. The deeper color at the center of the plate forms as the glaze melts and pools in the middle during the firing. The piece is lead-free and dinnerware safe.
