Each pot is unique.  As a similar process to Natural Ash Glazes, Ben III frequently places these finishes in the wood kiln to accentuate the colors as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis piece is hand-signed by Ben Owen III with the year made (2024).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ben Owen Pottery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41095714373687,"sku":"Ben Owen III","price":325.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/8692\/3575\/files\/IMG_9959.jpg?v=1719325090","url":"https:\/\/store.benowenpottery.com\/products\/dimpled-bottle-in-cobalt-yellow-matte-and-salt-glaze-12h-ben-owen-iii","provider":"Ben Owen Pottery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
