Sculpture / Non Functional

Earthenware Sea Globes are fired many times to create complex glazing designs that have been abstractly inspired by the coastline where I live and work.

This beautiful earthenware Sea Globe has been decorated with multiple black, grey and aventurine glazes with gold detailing on the rim. The globe has been inspired by the iron rich rock formations that glisten in the morning sun here along the Pembrokeshire coast.

I complete very few Earthenware Sea Globes due to the success rate being low caused by the multiple firings and complex glazing designs. Each piece is unique and designed purely as a sculptural “objet d’art” and is not functional (i.e. should not be used as a vase).
