Slab Plate

I really like this slab plate because of the intricate designs that they created on it. I especially like the design on the right of the plate because they probably did it by hand from the looks of it.

This Slab plate/dish is quite a piece of fine art. Though it may be hard to see from the picture on the inside is a mural of Starry Night sky. With the dishes canoe like shape it makes you feel like you are floating on the sky. This is truly a beautiful piece.

Slab Plate

I really liked this lab plate because the way that they used mold to make the sides of the plate curve upwards. I also like how they used something to create a design with words on the inside of the plate.

Slab Plate

I like this plate because of how the edges are shaped. It is both simple and interesting. It also uses few colors, which makes it seem less flashy.

~Sebastien

These slab constructions were created using a slab roller. The designs were then etched or stamped onto the surface. I admire the use of two different surfaces for the interior and exterior of each bowl, and the imprinted design that had to be made with a stamp in order to be so identical each time it was used.

Slab Pottery

I'm not quite sure where this slab pot came from, but I think that it is old rather than new. I like it because of the design that it has, it kind of reminds me of baseball seems, so it looks like something that I could do on a smaller scale.

I like the simplicity of this slab construction. The dotted design inside of the bowl allow the black and white to "pop" in the picture.

This is my favorite slab ceramic piece out of all the pieces I found because it came from Thessaloniki greece which is an interesting place. I also like it because it is so old.

This is a vase made out of slabs of clay. I like it because of the unique shape of the pot and its design. I also like it because it looks very challenging to make because of it box shape.

This is a pot that is from the ancient Mayan culture. The reason I like this pot is because of its simplicity. It looks like a very easy pot to make, but at the same time it is appealing to look at. - Trevor Carlyle

These two coil pots inspire me because of the way they made the designs out of coils and used not smoothed out coils to enhance the design. I might try to incorporate the coils rolled up in the middle on my coil pot.

-Zach Chong

This coil pot inspires me because I really like the design and also because it has the same shape as my coil pot. I really like the symmetry and colors that the artist has used in this design. For my pot, I also plan to use symmetry.

Coil Pot

This pot inspires me because it is very unique and, when you think about it, very difficult to construct. I like how the design is not just coils that are parallel to the other coils and also how there are two sections of the design. This pot is from http://www.mojavemountainpottery.com/coilpot.html.

This is a pot made in the medieval times. I like both its color and shape. I think I will design my own pot with circles and lines. I also like the idea of a handle.

Inspiring Coil Pot Design

This is a coil pot made with four necks with the coils showing. Incorporating more than one neck seems like a very interesting idea, but probably not very stable. I would like to try and do something with maybe two necks instead.

I like how the neck goes up in a spiral and I will try yo use this design.

I really like how unlike some other pots, this one was made without holes in the pots from the coils so it could still be used as a pot, but coils were used to blend a design into the pot.

-Brandon

This pot made by a high school student has a good use of repeat designs and also negative space. Also the use of coils to finish the top edge an original idea.

Coil Designs on Pot

This is a pot made by a student in high school (Whitney). I like the variation in the coils from thin to thick and int series of balls of clay to create some variety. ci

It's a Navajo pot made recently... This pot caught my attention because of it's coloration and patterns of the colors...

African Coil Pottery

The Baule People live in the central Ivory Coast and are known for their artwork. Baule pottery was traditionally made by women because women usually used them as utility wares, meaning they can be used for many different things, such as the way that we can use a cup in many different ways. This particular piece carried water based on its gourd shape and flared top, something you still see today. There is a design around the bottom of the neck that looks something like boats sailing on an ocean, almost Hawaiian-like. It could also have been used for ritual purposes, like we baptise people.

Coil Pot

 This Coil pot was from zimbabwe in the late 1900's to the early 20th century. This pot caught my attention because the outside layer is actually a crusted animal hide layer of beer.  ---  Ryan Ho

Coil Pot

This is a 20th century coil pot from Ghana. It was most likely used to carry water inside. I chose this pot because I like the motifs it displays. The designs are either of some kind of wheeled vehicle or a random creature. I like how the artist left the designs up for interpretation.

This coil pot was found in Mali and was made in the 20th century and I chose this piece because of the repeat motif design just like the designs that we are putting on our promise ball.

This pot is native to the Bamum or Nasai peoples in the grassland region of Cameroon. It was made in the 20th century, and was most likely used to hold water. The figures on the pot are water snakes, which also point to the likeliness of it being a water pot.

The pot was ment to look like a gourd. A gourd is a drinking container made from the shell of a cabaca fruit. I chose this pot because of its unique shape.

Chinese Coil Pot

This Chinese coil storage jar was sculpted during China's Neolithic Period, 3rd to 2nd millennium BCE. It originated from Yangshou culture, a heritage known for its prolific and remarkable pottery. The embellishment was painted with black and red slip over brown clay, which is characteristic of Yangshou culture. The design is composed of "swirling curvilinear patterns decorating the upper half of the jar" and "serrations along the edges of the lines".

This is a 20th century pot made by the Frafra peoples of Ghana. The purpose of this pot was to carry water. The design is a relief decoration that seems to be unknown as to its purpose. It looks like a creature, but only the builder knows what it is.

This pot was found in the 2nd half of the 18th century. It is a porcelain pot with a bamboo design. The leaves of the plant repeat. The thing that caught my eye on this piece was the blue shades with the white pot and the design of the leaf.

Justin Ige

The gourd-shaped wine pot (right) is covered in a scaly motif that increases in size the closer it is to the base of the pot. The pot was sculpted during Korea's Koryo Period, 918-1392. The design appeals to me because it is perfectly suited for embellishing a spherical ceramic sculpture. Since the scales are not rectangular, they do not conflict with the bulbous shape of the pot.

This African Zulu Pinch Pot was used for serving beer which was a key component to Zulu hospitality. This repeat motif has an impressed design of different triangles all around the pot. You can make your design by impressing into the clay or by painting it onto the surface, the clay must be very smooth for this process to work. After this process is done the sculpter painted on three differant colors to give the pot a very tribal feel.
