PORCELAINia
HEMISPHAERICA
Hemisphaerica are bowls some with
round bottoms which because of their low center of gravity are stable; therefore,when
set into a rocking motion can continue to do so for up to several minutes, given
their highly polished bottoms (diamond polished). They are high fired to maturity,
polished and unglazed. They are made from slips differing in concentration of
the red iron oxide colorant, hence the different hues. The above images are
of the top and side views of a hemisphaerica (click for an enlarged view).
