Starlit sky Brutalist planter with attached drip tray, 2024

May 24, 2024

Starlit sky on a clear night / the milky way / eternity / clarity / raindrops sticking to window glass
Black stoneware clay with fine white grog, slab-built, denim satin glaze

This black stoneware planter's main body has a hexagonal top opening and base with six straight sides.

The main body sits atop three stilts that meet in the middle above a hexagonal drip tray.

The denim satin glaze is applied in a tape-resist starburst pattern from the corners of the geometric form.
The glaze has a dark teal base, and speckles of blues, both light and navy, float in each section of glaze.
