Contemporary Craft. Vessel. Martin, Malcolm (British, b. 1959). Dowling, Gaynor (British, b. 1965). The vessel has a four-sided, roughly diamond-shaped base. The plan widens and elongates into a pointed shuttle shape as the sides rise upwards to the widest point. They continue to rise and contract into a narrow shuttle-shaped mouth, which is hollowed out to a depth of 5 cm. The sides are carved with twenty-six wavy horizontal ripples, and there are five notches at intervals on both side edges opposite to each other. The exterior is limed white overall, and the interior of the mouth is blackened. Limewood, carved, notched and limed white on the exterior and blackened on the interior, height, whole, 55.0 cm, width, base, 5.6 cm, width, widest point, 18.5 cm, 1999. Gift of Sir Nicholas and Lady Goodison through the National Art Collections Fund.
