Double Circle Corrugated Jar

<p>Jared Tso is a fourth-generation ceramist who reinvents an ancient style of utility ware with striking contemporary flair. Between 650 and 1450, Ancestral Puebloan potters created various types of corrugated vessels. But whereas ancient ceramists simply layered coiled rolls of clay from the bottom up to build ceramic forms, Tso ingeniously experiments with creating corrugations that are discontinuous, intersecting, or that spiral outward from multiple points within the vessel—as in this jar. Here, Tso accentuated the beauty of the textured corrugations by using clay that is naturally embedded with tiny, sparkling flecks of mica.</p>
