Squared bottle

This pot was thrown on the wheel without a base, it was then altered into a rectangular shape, and a base was added together with a coiled top opening. A neck was added and feet cut into the bottom. The piece was then salt-glazed in an area of the kiln with minimum salt exposure. This results in an attractive dry orange surface colour, contrasted with blue celadon glaze pours. The clay is grogged stoneware.
