Tea Jar (2) by Bob Andrew


Hand Thrown in Devon
Approximate measurements 13cm height x 9cm width.

Crafted from La Bourne clay, that’s been fired with soda. The tall form and flared, faceted design of this Jar is quite striking in its simplicity and aesthetic qualities. The contoured shape, so tactile and satisfying, with great balance of proportion. This has to be one of our favourites for the way the soda interacts with the cut lines and how the deep plum tones balances the overall aesthetic perfectly. An inset lid reveals a small opening, ideal for storing smaller, finer leaves such as balled Oolongs, Gyokuro or Rooibos.

Each handmade and unique, therefore slight variations in shape, size and glaze will occur. Handwash recommended.
