Anglorum Jar
Anglo Saxon pottery spans a wide time period, though it wasn’t until around 900 AD that the potters wheel became widely used. In combination with a wealth of different clays, the production of pottery became cheap and accessible. Lacking the ornamentation of Grecian pottery, Anglo Saxon forms were often left raw, showcasing natural earth tones ranging from dull yellows to greens, something that I tried to more closely accomplish with this jar.
Height: 3.5”
Diameter: 4.5”
The timber this vessel is crafted from is ethically sourced and selected from Spokane, WA. Turned and carved from Box Elder wood and treated with a combination of iodine pigmentation, iron acetate, and fire before being finished with Tried & True varnish oil.
