Asymetrical moon jar

This 2015 moon jar is made using a traditional Korean wooden wheel and fired in a traditional kiln using pine trees which have been dried for five years. The base colour is white, with trace minerals in the soil fired through high temperature, creating traces of blue, yellow and green. It is an asymmetric moon shape rather than a perfect circle.
