The clay body of this cup is red stoneware. The graceful oval form tapers slightly from bottom to top. A square formed finger ring near the base provides a counterbalance to the taper. Lead-free glazes provide subtle but stark contrast.  Sold separately.

STATEMENT
The clay vessels of Eshelman Pottery order and dignify human life. Clarity is given to simple forms by contrasting glazed and unglazed surfaces. Pure clean glazes render elegant presentation of food and drink.
I am exploring and developing innovative and highly functional slipcast forms. My current work incorporates architectural forms and elements of utilitarian objects and tools, and is influenced by contemporary design.
