Wheel thrown Textured Ceramic Bottles

$380.00

"Sunken Treasure Series", by Marietta Theodorou-LeMieux.

This is a special listing for the set of 2 wheel-thrown bottles, and specifically:
Taller one: 22" (55cm) high
Shorter one: 18" (45cm) high

You can pick the size you'd like on the drop down menu or you can purchase the set of 2 for a discounted price.

All bottles are MADE TO ORDER and are shipped within 4-6 Weeks.

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!

They are made from a porcelaneous stoneware clay and have Marietta's silicon carbide Lava Textured Glaze on the outside, and a bronze glaze on the lips. Other lip-colors available, as you can see from the ones with the Red Crackle glaze in the thumbnail photo to the side. They are decorative but you can use them to display long stems of dried flowers.

Contact us if you'd like another lip color and we will let you know if it can be done.

Marietta has been selling these gorgeous elegant bottles through many of the top galleries in the country, some of them include:
