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.

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 thought this coil pot was interesting because of its design. I might use this design for my coil pot. Random lines were carved out and then filled in with glaze.- Trevor Carlyle

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 is a coil pot and it was finished smoothly and does not have any designs on it. It is from the Republic of the Congo and was made in between the years of 1900 and 1920. It is a Kwele vessel and was probably used to hold water.

Coil pot
Tuesday, February 1, 2011
This is a 19-20th century coil pot. It was made by the kwele peoples, from the Republic of the Congo. The pot is called a kwele vessel which was probably used to carry water. 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".
