Green mug on black clay - twisted pattern

A regular and symmetrical trompe l'oeil pattern for a twisting effect, with different levels of textures. The green glaze sings and drapes itself in gold in contact with the black clay, sharing their minerals and oxides.

This mug was turned and then stamped by hand, each design requires 1-3 applications of different tools. The difficulty of this cup is the depth and the regularity of the forms which dance on its surface. The pattern is not a regular repetition like the other shapes, but a game of symmetry and trompe l'oeil.
