Pottery by Dewy Spizzirri


Dewy Spizzirri has also sent in some pictures of her pots for us to enjoy.

Dewy enjoys working in alternative firing.

This first pot is smoke fired.












This pot to the left is a small Raku vessel.












This lidded vessel is an example of foil sagger firing with
horsehair.














And last but not least another fine example of a
raku pot.

And - if my memory serves me correctly -
Dewy won the "Wolff Award" with this pot.

Great Work Dewy!
