Insights
The slip glaze technique used here is typical of exemplary work produced in the Horezu Monastery, in Walachia, now a Unesco Heritage site. Hand thrown on a kick-wheel, the bowl, once dried, has concentric circles of coloured glazes applied with a goose quill. A stick is then used to pull radiating lines through the glaze in a technique called jiravirea.
Details
- Natural clay with glaze
