A near-black handbuilt cup with a torn rim, its dark wall carrying a pale blue-silver frost and rust-brown patches, held in a hand with an incised number on the base, piece 1827 of A Penny For Your Pottery.

A small, open cup with a torn, uneven rim and a near-black charcoal body. A pale blue-silver frost scatters across the dark wall, broken by rust-brown patches where it thins, with fine grit catching a faint sparkle. The base, set in a thumbed hollow, carries an incised number scratched into the clay. The lopsided walls and torn rim read as handbuilt.

What gives the surface its cool sparkle? A pale blue-silver frost sits over the charcoal body and catches the light in fine flecks — described by appearance, with no glaze, metal or firing named. Piece 1827 of 10,000, listed at $18.27.
