Grindavik Pot
This eye-catching pot is truly one-of-a-kind, produced by the interplay of an iron solution and heat in a raku firing. Generating different colors at different temperatures, the ferric wash infuses the piece with a multitude of unpredictable patterns and hues. The burgundy, red, yellow and black on this piece look like lava flow of different shades and consistencies. This pot would be a fabulous decorative accent on a side table or mantel, reminding you to relinquish control of some things and go with the flow.
Top Diameter: 4”
Maximum Diameter: 5-3/8”
Bottom Diameter: 3”
Height: 4-1/4”
The volcanic eruption near Grindavik, Iceland in December 2023 was the fourth eruption in three years in this area. It began much more powerfully than the others, producing more lava in its first seven hours than the total lava from the previous eruption. Intense earthquakes preceded the eruption, offering a bit of warning. Volcanoes release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. However, the impact of human activities on the carbon cycle far exceeds that of all the world's volcanoes combined, by more than 100 times.
