Hand-built smoke-fired vessel featuring elegant double-curve cutouts on the rim, hand-trimmed with braided sweetgrass. Crafted using traditional coil and slab techniques, the form emphasizes the natural movement of the hand: gentle inward and outward curves meet at the rim to create a balanced, rhythmic silhouette. The surface bears the rich, smoky patina developed from pit firing—deep charcoal grays, warm sepias, and subtle veining—each mark a record of fire, earth, and time.
The double-curve cutouts are carefully carved after initial forming to maintain structural integrity while allowing light and air to play through the rim. Sweetgrass trim is woven and attached by hand, offering a soft, aromatic contrast to the ceramic body and honoring Indigenous material traditions. Dimensions and color tones vary slightly by piece; each vessel is a one-of-a-kind work reflecting the maker’s hand and the firing’s responsiveness.
Use as a display vessel, ceremonial object, or focal accent in a contemplative interior. Care: avoid prolonged exposure to moisture; clean gently with a dry or lightly damp cloth. Handle with respect—the sweetgrass will naturally age and may be refreshed or replaced as desired.
