This lidded ceramic vessel is a Raku-fired studio pottery piece featuring stylized fish motifs by British ceramicist Rob Whelpton.
Hand-built cylindrical jar with a domed lid topped by a small sculpted fish finial, decorated with an all-over sgraffito and slip-painted fish pattern.
Outdoor Raku firing process, utilizing metallic salts and post-firing smoke reduction to create the characteristic crackle textures and warm, mottled background tones.
