Tiny Skull Number 5, 2022
Wood fired porcelain
2.5" long x 2" wide x 1" tall

About the process:
This original handmade sculpture was wood fired in a traditional Japanese-style anagama kiln. The kiln was fed with wood every five to ten minutes until it reached temperatures of 2300 Fahrenheit over the course of 100 hours. As the firing goes on, the wood ash settles on the pieces and melts into a ceramic glaze. The teeth are out of a purer porcelain than the skull. All the colors come the clay, the ash, and the flame, with no added glaze or slip.

About the piece:
This is a tiny, slip-cast ceramic skull. I made 10 of them this firing! This one has lots of brown crystals.

About shipping:
Your skull will be sent out via USPS Priority Mail by December 7th, safely and securely heading your way. In case of overpayment for international shipping or multiple purchases, I'll refund the extra. Shipments to within the continental United States should arrive before December 25th, assuming the post office cooperates.

About gifts:
If you would like gift wrapping or would like for the receipt to not include the price, let me know, and I can make it happen.

About payment:
Interested in paying in installments? Shoot me an email, and we can make it happen. However, I can't reserve a piece during a shop launch! If your favorite piece is still available 2 hours after the launch, then we can set something up.
