Penumbra Bowl Shaped Stone Age Pot #1

[19Mateo83]

I am going to sell last of my stone age pots. My shoulder is still a bit screwed up and I can't make any more now, but that should change as my shoulder condition improves, hopefully in a few weeks.
Shipping charges are ridiculous, particularly to the west cost, and I can't sell them as cheaply as I was because of this. I lost money on two shipped a few weeks ago and pretty much broke even on the others. When I reorganize and have more pots, hopefully in 6 to 10 weeks, I will have to figure out the best way to deal with this issue. In the meantime, for the pots I have remaining, I will still include shipping anywhere in the USA but I will have to raise the base line price.
This pot, and the other two pots I am listing here will be $125. I can't prom ise delivery before Christmas, but since I ship next day, and in rare cases the following day, there is a very good chance of receiving before the holidays.

About 3 to 4 inches inside.

Put me on the waiting list for one of these. I don’t have a tree for one but I want one anyway. Freaking incredible work!

(when your shoulder is up for it),

If the shoulder becomes an issue... i may have to come to VA and WATCH you throw a bunch.... you’ve already encouraged me to learn NATURAL textures, deeply and intimately.. in LAYERS.. through conversation...and ALSO through the inspiration i draw from your work/pieces.

So I should, plan on doing biscuit loads, to “flex” my oxide staining muscles, and watch your process, so that, IF, for any reason, you aren’t able to throw.. I can keep your technique alive.. because I feel your work is very crucial to this developing, “North American Mini-Tree” movement.

Wish that I was that well organized. Thank you for you kind words and consideration.
I start physical therapy tomorrow. I obviously need help with this. I miss making pots but any elevation of my right arm past my waist is fatiguing and painful. Sometimes the pain seems out of nowhere.
I am thinking I may be able to start up again in 3 to 6 weeks.

You are very kind. Don't count me down and out. I have a few years in my still.

Gotta love those Stone Age pots!

Yours is beautiful , pictures will never do these justice, you have to see and hold them in person to fully appreciate the detail that went into making these!

Congratulations @HorseloverFat and awesome work @penumbra!

Maybe I'll have to buy all of your future pots again (when your shoulder is up for it), I'm glad other people are able to enjoy these now haha.

You certainly have bought several of these from me and I am very grateful for your encouragement my friend.
When I have a chance I plan on visiting the on loan bonsai exhibition in Richmond in February. I'll let you know when I come down there. Who knows, maybe we can meet in person.

Absolutely! That’s why the “IF the shoulder becomes an issue” was in there.

Because one can teach, even with NO shoulders.
