Bound Pots

Name: Bound Pots
Availability: InStock

£395 – £625

Artist: Kate Schuricht

The Captured Time series of urns are inspired by Kate’s love of containers and her fascination with the long history of humans collecting and storing special objects. They originally started as a range of smaller bound containers which soon became her signature pieces. These statement containers come in a range of sizes and are slip cast in a semi porcelain clay, then high fired to stoneware temperatures. The glaze ranges from a watery Sea Green on white to a darker grey/green and they are also available with beaded lids (see ‘more from Kate Schuricht’). They can be used as urns, keepsake urns or memory boxes. Containers are all supplied with separate dark brown thread for binding after filling.

Approximate dimensions:

Small Height 23cm x Width 8cm (internal volume approx. 0.5L)
Short Height 15cm x Width 14cm (internal volume approx. 1L)
Medium Height 29cm x Width 9cm (internal volume approx. 1L)
Tall Height 36cm x Width 11cm (internal volume approx. 2L)

Kate Schuricht

Kate draws her creative inspiration from the passage of time and the profound ability of objects to connect us with our past.

Boxes, jars and containers with bound lids are amongst her signature pieces, with the quality of the surfaces echoing elements of water, rocks and horizons. Her distinctive tonal effects come from applying layers of glaze, creating textures that compel us to touch the surface and connect with each piece individually. Just like people, no two pieces are ever the same.
