A standout piece from Kate Metten’s gas-fired series, this double-belly vase carries a vivid interplay of burnt orange, smoky black, and pale, finely fractured glaze. Carbon trapping gathers darkness across its rounded contours, while warm bands emerge like embers beneath a cooling crust.

Handmade and fired in reduction, the vessel’s swelling form evokes the body as a keeper of experience. Its surface holds the encounter between deliberate shaping and the uncertainty of firing—a material memory of transformation, impossible to repeat precisely.

One of a Kind.
