Throwing Thursday - Urns

June 5, 2014

So recently I've had some friends ask for urns. Urns are typically tall pots that have some sort of closure, sometimes a cork or even a clay lid thrown to match the pot. I've only been working on the wheel for six months now. I've thrown a few jars but really I'm still just getting the hang of the whole thing. Now my quest it to try to make a nice urn. Something that will do justice to the memory of the loved one its being requested for. Not all my pots make it. In fact, I lost two as I was working tonight and one turned into a bowl and the other a sort of bud vase.

Here's my latest attempt.
