It takes a while for things to get fired and then glazed and then fired again...
So this was what I was playing with before I even knew Mum was host to teh cancer.

Okay, I took photos in lamplight. But it's hardly high-grade ceramics.
The lip of the bowl has a leaf design. It might not come out as well in the pic. It's raised, and IMO quite cool (it was my pottery teacher's suggestion.)

She said, "You seem to have a talent when choosing your glazes!" It's called dumb luck, but I've loved both bowls I've made. Fingers crossed for the next 3 pieces - Mum's mug and two tiny primative-style cats (where primative means no real talent.)

Second pic is of course to show how tiny the dish really is.

I do love it and can't stop touching it. I can totally see why this is offered as occupational therapy.
