Wave-shaped
Potter: Lowndes, Gillian
Buff stoneware, hand-built covered with grey-white glaze stopping short of the base. The vessel has a wavy front and a flat back. The glaze has bubbled sufficiently in places so as to reveal the body underneath. There is an irreguar indentation on the left of the front which interrupts the otherwise smooth flow.
