Celadon Blue
The Blue Celadon or Goryeo Celadon Glaze originated in Korea during the 10th and 11th centuries. The finish is made from a feldspathic rock with additions of clay and flint rock and small amounts of yellow iron oxide as a pigment. This finish is excellent for revealing carved designs on the glaze surface or the underlying clay surface. The finish relies on the type of clay, the amount of iron oxide, and the firing atmosphere that is used to create the right environment for the color to develop.
This piece is hand-signed by Ben Owen III with the year made (2004) and is part of our "Pots From The Past" release. A unique treasure from NC ceramic art history!
