Squirrel and Acorn Jar in Yellow
Squirrel and Acorn Jar in Yellow
$90.00
This jar depicts a native red squirrel gathering acorns to prepare for the long winter ahead. Each squirrel can bury up to 3,000 nuts in a season. A simple reminder for us - what can we prepare ahead so we can rest later, when resources are scarce?
This series is a limited run. I brush a pale yellow slip over a dark-bodied clay, then carve into each piece by hand. I will not be recreating this particular color combination, and there are under fifteen pieces in this collection. This is the only jar in a unique shape that calls to mind the profile of an acorn.
