Jerry and Abigail

Meet Abigail

Abigail wears the word “feral” as a badge of honour. She is a world renowned knife fighter who is currently undefeated. She currently works on the boats too generate some income but she hopes one day that knife fighting will make her rich and she can buy a quiet spot in the woods in BC. 

Meet Jerry

Jerry is an avid conspiracy theorist. He considers himself a sovereign citizen and therefore hasn’t paid his taxes since 1997. His hobbies are forging knives and knitting pillow shams. His friends think he’s one eye twitch away from a total mental breakdown.

This piece of art starts as a ball of clay, this one is hand built , trimmed, handled and once dry I hand carved the images into the mug using a variety of carving tools. It will go through its first firing in the kiln which takes 12 hours.  I will apply a clear glaze to each piece which gives it the glossy texture and back in the kiln for another 9 hours. Once this firing is complete I apply a gold lustre which requires another 3 hours in the kiln.   Each piece takes between 3 - 6 weeks to make and no two pieces ever turn out the same. Please do not microwave or put this piece in the dishwasher.
