The two bottles
Patina and Ceramic, side by side

Patina on Brass
Three pieces of brass
One piece stays bare brass, one has turned fully to patina, one is caught midway. Each is corroded and polished by hand, then set on the glass. Turn the bottle under the light before you choose.

Ceramic
A cap fired at 1000°C
A round ceramic cap, a tassel, and a small ceramic charm engraved with R. The kiln decides the glaze and the maker’s hand the tassel, so each Ceramic bottle comes to you as it was finished. The glaze shifts with the light and from one firing to the next. Ceramic arrives at the houses in late November.
