Since I do many shows, most artist like to trade. SO I always will trade for stoneware bowls... My goal is to only have hand thrown stoneware in my cupboard. This bowl is one of Waters, Sandy Langs husbands (double Patchouli soap couple). They are both professional potters and professors of pottery. You should see my Suasn Abramowitz collection, she is hooked on Full Moon Soap, another professor potter. Oh I love them all!
