Dark handbuilt two-handled ceramic amphora whose loop ears rise above a small torn mouth, piece 2005 of A Penny For Your Pottery.

Two big loop ears rise clear above the shoulder line, framing a small ragged mouth between them — the third dark amphora in a row, handbuilt from torn, crusty brown-black clay. Where 2002 and 2003 keep their collars up front, 2005 leads with its ears.

Which way is up on piece 2005? The ears decide it: they crest above everything, and the little torn mouth hides between them like a nest. Piece 2005 of 10,000, listed at $20.05.
