Hand thrown classically shaped urn.
This urn is a 2nd due to grinding of the glaze at the rim, see last photo. This is a cosmetic flaw only.
Glazed with my own formulated glazes.
8.25" height by 6.25" wide approximately 55 cubic inch.
Each urn is individually made by me. I take great care in my work to make sure I offer the best and most beautiful urn I can. An artistic urn made from the earth to hold the memory of your loved one. Or to hold treasures.
After throwing and carving each piece, I then wait for all to dry. After stacking the ware into the kiln, I fire to 2100 degrees, a 14 hour firing. I take all the ware out of the kiln and apply glaze to each piece and fire again to 2400 degrees, another 14 hour firing in a controlled atmosphere that causes the special colors and effect of my glazes. 2400 degrees is the deals highest temperature in the spectrum of stoneware. Making all of my stoneware vitreous and strong.
One cubic inch = One pound of live weight is the rule of thumb for choosing the size urn for your loved one's remains.
I use an online volume calculator, measuring the interior of the urn, to arrive at my cubic inch amount.
