Dusky plum handbuilt vessel built of slab-like bands, its surface webbed with deep fissures, piece 1631 of A Penny For Your Pottery.

A vessel in dusky plum built of slab-like bands, every inch of the sandy surface webbed with deep fissures — it photographs closer to quarried stone than shaped clay. The rim crumbles pale; the top-down photo drops into a dark interior.

Is it stone? It reads that way, but the stacked bands say built clay — pressed up by hand, then left to craze into its own map of cracks. Piece 1,631 of 10,000, listed at $16.31.
