Pots were hard to resist. Each potter has a special feel, either their glazes or their clay, or the treatment of their glazes, or their shapes and contours. The prices were also excellent!
From smaller to larger....
First group is of very tiny pots, by Jim Barrett. The little rectangular ones are almost exactly the size of the first joint of my pointer finger, from side to side and from knuckle to tip. (Remember, I'm a female type person) The oval is very shallow and adorable. And the last two pots are fulgurites, which are lightening strikes. They have fantastic shapes. The round one could be a little natural water pot (imagine it with a tiny wooden dipper) and the second could hold a little thimbleful of moss or a very tiny accent plant. They are heavy in iron content, so they have a metallic feel. Some fulgurites are much more sandy. These come from the desert. Each has a hollow, filled with dirt, if you look for it.
