The Anglo-Saxon Runes on this mug spell out
the four ancient elemental forces of nature: There are celtic knots on the top and bottom of the handle. |
|||||||
| To make this mug, I carved individual letter stamps from clay and press them into a flat slab of clay before forming it into a cylinder and adding a pulled handle and slab bottom. The band of runes and the celtic knots on the handle are stained with iron oxide. The rest of the mug can be glazed in a variety of colors, examples of which can be seen on other mugs in this catalog. The mug pictured is glazed in a glossy Black glaze. | |||||||||

These are examples of the $20 cups. On the left is the glossy Black glaze, the middle is glossy Woo Blue, & the right is glossy Crystalline Brown. | ||||||||

This is an example of the large mug size glazed in satin matt Shinoglaze. | ||||||||
