Tall Tumbler or Vase

Elegant tall tumbler or vase. Salt glaze with combing decoration, melted glass, and contrasting base. As you turn this in your hand the color changes due to the variation from the wood firing. Mark uses one of these as a drinking tumbler, but it doubles very nicely as a useful vase. He calls it an Iced Tea Ceremony Vessel.

Here's Mark on the origin of this shape. "Tea drinking has fueled pottery making across the globe. Bowls for the Japanese Tea Ceremony, teacups and saucers for English tea-time and mugs, common in many places, are easy examples. Here in the South (of the US) iced tea is a favorite drink, so I created these tall tumblers to drink from - or Iced Tea Ceremony Vessels (ITCV) as I like to call them."
