More Oct. 31st pots...for some reason Blogger WOULD NOT accept these last two pictures. So I opened a second post and it's working.This piece is 9" high. I'm calling it a reliquary...a customer wanted to give a rattle to a friend who will be having a baby. She is going to put a few small special items in it, which will rattle. ( I included 3 miniscule porcelain hearts, in case she wants them-the sound is good). She said it didn't have to be standard baby rattle shape, "Use your imagination-surprise me."she said. She also asked me to choose the glaze- just not pastel pink or blue. I told her I would make some holes to let the sound out. So this is what I came up with. It has a rubber stopper inside the foot. BTW, this piece will never be handled by babies (if you are thinking of safety issues( - it's a commemorative piece for the parents.This little pot is 6" high. The picture is crooked-I can replace it later- but look, you can see me crouching with my camera! Yes, my pottery is better than my photography...
