55. Pitcher w/ ‘DF’ Sprigs

“Vanity, thy name is…Finnegan!” I used my personal stamp to make these little round sprigs. Some of my earliest influences as a potter came from medieval German and British pottery. I recently started to explore the more ornamental ideas from those days. Sprigging is a technique for decorating pottery with low relief shapes pressed in shallow molds. This jug is 7.5″ high and holds about 24 ounces.
