$380.00
- +

These beautiful wheel thrown bottle forms feature Marietta's unique metallic finish, or otherwise lustres, that gives them their unique reflective surfaces.

Made to Order, allow 4-6 weeks for making and shipping

This is a special listing for the set of 3 wheel-thrown bottles, and specifically:

1 small round 4" (10cm) White Crackle,
1 straight 6" (15cm) Orange Crackle
and 1 straight 8" (20cm) Smokey Crackle

Marietta throws these bottles on the wheel up to 26" or 65cm high, (as tall as her present kilns can fit to fire) and gives workshops and demonstrations on bottle making. Many people have a difficult time believing that she doesn't use an extruder or a mold to make them until they watch her on the wheel. A very difficult form to throw!

The iridescence is achieved by adding 12% 22k Gold in powder form into the glaze and the piece is fired multiple times including a reduction firing (absence of oxygen during firing). The dragonfly wing effect is done by hand-painting.

The whole set of 3 bottles is for sale here. You can use them with dried flowers, they are decorative and do not hold water. A very versatile set of bottles, would make an excellent gift for a housewarming party or a wedding.
