Description

Look the part this Halloween with this Jack-o’-lantern/pumpkin tea light holder. Hand thrown on my potters wheel using strong stoneware clay and altered after to have a cute but menacing grin. Glazed in orange and green.

This lantern has an opening at the back to insert your candle. Perfect for halloween and will last years unlike the traditional natural pumpkin which will last only a few days.

The lantern has been made on the heavy side so if you want to place it outside it will resist being blown over.

Approx. Height: 132mm
Approx. Diameter: 115mm

All of my items will be packaged carefully as I’d hate for anything to get damaged in the mail; and of course I am more than happy to combine shipping.

How It’s Made

By Hand.

All of my work is handmade, predominetly on a potter’s wheel. Once the clay has been prapared the ball is transfered onto the wheel where the form is pulled. Once made, the peice is left to dry slightly overnight to a leather hard consistency before hopping right back onto the wheel to be trimmed with turning tools to remove any excess clay and refine the shape.

Once the clay has fully dried out after a week or two it goes into the kiln for the first firing – the bisque – where it will be slowly heated to 1030ยฐc. The piece is then ready to glaze. Glaze is a slurry of different clays, chemicals and metal oxides which melt in the second kiln firing to create a glass-like surface, the metal oxides creating the colours. During this final firing the kiln will reach 1220ยฐc.
