Big Day At the Markets for Gaye Today

Down at the Sunday market this morning - nothing of interest for me, but Gaye couldn't help but find things she never knew she needed but had to be rescued for the grand total of $35.

The pottery is somewhat unique and rare. It is fired by a process called raku. This is a difficult and lengthy process using straw for firing and a fire which needs tending all night. The result is a lovely individual  and unpredictable finish with lots of character.
