The Artisanal Creative Process:
This exquisite one-of-a-kind vessel was hand built by Theodora using coil and pinch techniques with stoneware clay. Once the vessel has taken shape and dried to a perfect leather hard condition, the real fun begins.After several layers of underglaze and drying time, she hand draws the botanical composition with a clay carving tool, known as sgraffito.
