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\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThis piece is hand-signed by Ben Owen III with year made (2004), and, is part of our \"Pots From the Past\" release.  An extraordinary treasure to add to your collection!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ben Owen Pottery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32287485788215,"sku":"Ben Owen III","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/8692\/3575\/products\/IMG_6296.jpg?v=1599923890","url":"https:\/\/store.benowenpottery.com\/products\/nautilus-bowl-in-ash-glazes-11-25dia","provider":"Ben Owen Pottery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
