Measures 3 1/2″ tall and 7 1/2″ widest diameter. Weight is nice at around 1 pound. Has newly added rubber or plastic bumper feet. This vessel is signed on bottom. Reads Bacon. Guessing Norman Bacon cause it does look like his cool work. Also from what I read he is from Woodstock which is local and the Raku pottery was purchased local. Found some fun reading on Norman Bacon.
(After a thirty-year career starting in 1970, his life took a radical change moving on to other creative adventures. His art is a mixture of spontaneity and control, perfection and imperfection. Each piece he created is a unique, artistic expression, bringing clay, fire, water, and air together. Norman started his career in ceramics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the late sixties. His work with the raku process began in 1979. The Raku process consists of rapid firing and cooling, which transform clay objects into natural works of art. The resulting piece has colors and textures that cannot be duplicated.)
Looks like older work. Has its scuffs and scratches and still looks great!
Guessing made 1990’s. Cool Old Raku Vessel!!! Have other Raku also.
