Here are the first of a bunch of water jars and flower vases that are going into the kiln this early fall. I really needed some practice coiling, paddling, and collaring in necks on the kickwheel and \u8239\u5fb3\u5229\u3000funadokkuri (boat flasks) are the perfect shape for it. Traditionally these were used as flasks for oil, etc. on boats. They needed to be hard to tip over, hence the wide flat bottom. Now they are mostly used for flower arrangements.<\/p>\n

All of the water jars will have wooden lids made for them. I’ve done one or two in the past with surprising positive response from viewers\/customers. The lids are fun to make, since they are a non traditional item, you can play around a bit with them. I’ll post some lids later on, if the pots make it through the firing.<\/p>\n

\"3<\/a>
3 boat flasks and one taller crane necked flask<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"water<\/a>
water jars. any marks in the clay need to be pretty over the top, because the glaze covers them over for the most part.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"lug<\/a>
lug and lip detail<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"more<\/a>
more jars, a couple with ‘nail heads’ added, instead of lugs. You sometimes see these on tea cups and food dishes in Karatsu ware.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\"all<\/a>
all together now… The tallest flask is about 28cm tall,dry.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Karatsu<\/a>
Karatsu meets pueblo water jar, with kneeling, bowing tea person receiving tea. This started as a lug and sort of went bananas from there. This could be one of those things where I later slap myself.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Tall<\/a>
Tall necked vase with two pairs of tea people bowing.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Karatsu<\/a>
Karatsu meets pueblo water jar. sorry for the order here…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Lug<\/a>
Lug detail. I really must have wanted to drink tea that day.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"boat<\/a>
boat flask with porcelain additions. Here’s the big question: Will they pop off upon drying?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"tall<\/a>
tall necked flower vase with lugs, (finally some normal ones)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
