Nestled in the hillside surrounding Sage's home and pottery studio, lies an array of natural materials to be foraged. With a little attention and a lot of curiosity, she crafts wild clay, pigments, and various plant fibers into functional wares of the home. This clay is more than a medium; it is a connection to the land.
Wild clay collected from the edge of Tick Hill in Wallowa, Oregon. Two processes were used to finish these cups: raw clay was collected + applied straight from the earth, and another batch was minimally refined and toned with a white stoneware for color.
Fired to 2232° F, oxidation.
Wild clay beautifully exhibits the imperfections of its untamed origin, resulting in a variability of finish and surface texture.
