Wheel-thrown and hand-built porcelain fired to cone 5, then luster fired with silver luster.
9.75” x 10.25” x 9”
Spring is an eclectic and eccentric, retro/futuristic industrial teapot. No birds, butterflies and buttercups. A spring, valves, tubes and a perforated nozzle in an architectural framework. Spring evokes tension, compression and potential release. This “Spring” is wheel-thrown and hand-built porcelain fired to cone 5, then luster fired with silver luster. Porcelain masquerading as metal. “Spring” merges art and engineering. And honors the nuts-and-bolts traditions of both hard work and whimsy.
