He or she then polished the piece and etched the design on the side, which resembles waves or mountains. Next it was added to a kiln which was deprived of of oxygen which turns the pottery black.

This Bowl has a 3″ diameter at the top and stands about 2″ high.  The rim measures .25″ thick.  One of a Kind!
