Pale greige handbuilt cup with soft facet planes around the lower body, yellow-ochre streaks riding the ridges, and a torn rim, piece 546 of A Penny For Your Pottery.

A pale greige cup, its lower body cut into soft facet planes; yellow-ochre streaks ride the facet ridges, rust-brown veins settle between them, and the rim ends torn. Underneath, a round raised pad carries 546 incised, ochre traces reaching the base edge.

Why does the color follow the ridges? The ochre sits exactly on the facet edges and nowhere else — the photos show the pattern; its cause stays unstated. Piece 546 of 10,000, listed at $5.46.
