I think this bowl cooled down too quickly in the kiln and it developed a hairline crack on both sides. Won't hold liquid but displays fine.

This is the third Lance Corporal Stoney i have made with a volcano. Very happy with the colour combination on this one so i'm keeping it for myself.

This is the third variation of my bowl which i turned into a goblet, but the second attempt, after i had a few issues with the first one.

This is the second version of my bowl although this was my original idea. Two tikis back to back with a cavity in the head for some overproof rum. When i poured the very first pieces it looked like it would take up too much room so that is why the first bowl only has one tiki although i thought i'd try one anyway and this is the result. Certainly holds much less liquid though. It was also glazed and assembled using different methods.

My latest piece 'Lance Corporal Stoney'. The tiki is from a plastic mold purchased from eBay several years ago. I made a plaster cast of that then added the rocky base so that it had a flat and stable base to stand upright. A mold was then made. I will be playing around with this design and trying a few different variations. Bowl is 22cms wide and 6.5cms high. The overall height is 20cms. Holds 1.25 litres without ice.
