Set of 2 Black and Purple Wine Glasses · Chalices · Goblets from the "Iron Purple" collection. Wheel thrown ceramic stoneware pottery by GemFOX Glazed in a speckled satin black outside and glossy berry purple inside and under the foot. gemFOX 2012 signature barely visibile under the glaze. Approx. 6-1/8" tall. The tulip-shaped one is 2-1/2" in diameter at the rim, the flared one is 3-1/8" in diameter at the rim. Food safe, microwave and dishwasher safe. Treat carefully as you would fine china. Thrown freestyle by hand on the wheel without use of a mold, casting, guide, or ruler, so they will vary in size, shape, and proportion. Lightweight, thin walled. North Carolina clay that is between stoneware and porcelain, so texture is smooth and fine yet earthy and strong. Painted with non-commercial glazes formulated at my school and fired to ~2400 degrees Fahrenheit for a vitrified watertight finish. Humbly handmade by me, Gem, in Tampa Bay, FL USA. Imperfections are part of the nature and charm of handmade work.

Self Representing Artisan SRA #F71 in the U.S. specializing in, but not limited to, lampwork glass beads and jewelry, ceramics and pottery, knit and crochet, home-sewn fashion and other handcrafted items.
I work in a wide range of media and styles to fit many needs. I love working closely with clients to achieve something really unique and special whether it's for a gift, business, or personal enjoyment.
I work glass in the torch flame to create ornate beads, wearable art, tiny sculptures, and vessels. I'm known for intricate scrolls and florals on dainty elegant beads. From classic, to formal, to whimsical. I love to explore it all.
I also throw pottery on the wheel and especially love to create practical items with a timeless artful touch. From refined to rustic, form and function. Everyday items for home, kitchen, decor, dining, bar, restaurant, and winery. From long stem wine glasses to a favorite coffeemug. Let's create something special in ceramic that will outlast just about any other material through time.
If you love to cozy up with unique hand knitted and crocheted accessories, blankets, and garments, great because I always keep my hands busy and have yarn and a sticks close by. From baby hats, booties, and toys, to folkwear slippers, elegant scarves, hoods and shrugs. Knit and crochet is an essential part of many fashionistas' wardrobes, and almost all of us grew up with a special handmade afghan or blankie. Let's make it unique, make it personal.
I cannot wait to hear the project you have in mind so I can help bring your idea into reality!
