This is a Raku styled Urn created by Karen Brodie.
It is a beautifully crafted ceramic urn, notable for its elegant shape and striking color contrast. The urn has a smooth, rounded body tapering towards the base, capped with a rounded lid that features a decorative loop on top.
The surface is primarily black, interspersed with a white marbled pattern that gives it an artistic and almost ethereal quality. The design appears to flow organically, resembling streaks or drips, which adds a dynamic aspect to the piece. The interplay of black and white not only enhances its visual appeal but may also signify themes of duality, balance, or harmony in many cultural contexts.
This urn serves both functional and decorative purposes, often seen in artistic displays or as a vessel for holding ashes in memorial contexts.
This piece was created in 2019.
The overall dimensions of the pottery are 12" tall by 6" wide.
