Vessels

Steven began his artistic career as a potter specializing in raku-fired vessels and fine dinnerware.
The glazes and forms he uses today are a result of decades of experimentation and practice
and often combine metal and other elements to add texture and visual interest to the pieces.

 

New for 2011 are Steven's *"Wishing Vessels" made of brushed steel.  The pieces range in height from 4" - 10" and are available at his shows and in most League of NH Craftsmen galleries.


 

Steven's "Wishing Vessel" is based upon a Chinese legend that holds: 
a wish placed within a lidded vessel comes true...when it is for the best.
