This 10"x 8" Oval plate is made by HM Pottery in Saskatoon, SK, Canada, Treaty 6 Territory. Harm Maathuis (HM Pottery), is a hobby potter who works from his basement and garage. He was introduced to crystalline glazing in the late 1980s. All his pieces are custom fired. His pieces are one-of-a-kind.

Crystalline glazing is a specialized ceramic technique that encourages crystal growth within the glaze during firing. By carefully controlling the glaze chemistry and cooling process, artists create striking crystal formations. Because the process requires exceptional precision, no two pieces are ever exactly alike, making each one a unique work of art.
