Shino bottle form 3

£85.00

Made by Rory Shearer

Hand thrown bottle with handle, made by Rory Shearer in Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland. Rory uses shino glaze over dark slip, with added porcelain brush detail to create this vessel.

Concentrating on surface, his pieces are no longer just containers, but are hollow forms that you want to pick up, touch, move your hand over the surface and examine the exterior.  Rory’s work shares characteristics with large abstract painting, beautiful from a distance but compelling you to look ever closer.

Approximate dimensions – height: 20cm, width 13cm
