Handbuilt cup with a dark crusted upper body carrying glossy glass-like pools and drips over a bare brick-red lower body, piece 1684 of A Penny For Your Pottery.

A cup in two materials’ worth of look: the dark crusted upper body carries glossy, glass-like pools and drips — translucent white and olive with amber-brown patches, sparkling sugary in the sun — while the lower body and foot stay bare brick red. The close-up leans into the pooled melt; the windowsill shots put the dark rock beside it.

Is the top glazed and the bottom not? That’s how it photographs — a glassy crown over a raw-looking base, the border between them sharp. Piece 1,684 of 10,000, listed at $16.84.
