A rounded, dark handbuilt cup banded at the rim with a pale, frothy blue-grey beaded crust over a grainy near-black body, piece 1875 of A Penny For Your Pottery.

A rounded, handbuilt cup with a wavy, torn rim. Around the top a pale beaded crust froths in blue-grey and white — a dense band of tiny bubbles built up over the wall — while the lower body stays a dark, grainy near-black. The second photo moves in close on the crusted rim, where the frothy beads pool and thin. The uneven walls and torn rim read as handbuilt.

What’s happening around the rim? A pale, frothy crust of tiny beads bands the upper wall with a blue-grey cast, sitting over a dark grainy body — described only by its look, with no glaze or firing claimed. Piece 1875 of 10,000, listed at $18.75.
