Andy Vlock Large Gas-Fired Cup - Black Dolomite Glaze

This large cup by Andy Vlock is wheel-thrown from stoneware and gas fired in reduction, finished with a black dolomite glaze that pools and breaks subtly across the surface. A softly angled area of exposed clay emerges through the glaze, creating a quiet geometric contrast that suggests resist work without calling attention to process.

The form is compact and grounded, with gently rounded walls and a comfortable weight in the hand. The rim is smooth and even, inviting direct contact whether used for coffee, tea, or as a small bowl for daily use. The interior glaze is deep and dark, adding to the sense of depth and calm the piece carries.

Measuring approximately 4 inches tall and 4 inches in diameter, this cup reflects Andy Vlock’s restrained approach to form and surface—functional, balanced, and attentive to the quiet effects of firing.

Andy Vlockによるこのラージカップは、石器土を用いてろくろ成形され、還元焼成のガス窯で焼き上げられています。黒いドロマイト釉が全体を包み込みつつ、一部に釉のかかりが抑えられた素地が現れ、静かな幾何学的な対比を生み出しています。

丸みを帯びた安定感のあるフォルムで、手に自然になじむ心地よさがあります。口縁はなめらかで、飲み物にも小鉢としても使いやすい仕上がりです。内側の深い黒釉が、器全体に落ち着いた奥行きを与えています。

高さ約4インチ、直径約4インチ。形と焼成の効果を静かに引き立てる、実用性と美しさを兼ね備えた一点です。
