Details
Made by some of the first people to settle and farm in the British Isles. Carinated bowls like this were the first known pots to be made in Britain and would have been used by these Neolithic settlers to cook and store food.  The curved bottom allows the pot to sit comfortably in the embers of an open fire. 

This Carinated Bowl is based on examples excavated in the greater Stonehenge landscape and throughout Britain.

Materials

Smoke fired Terracotta

Dimensions

Approx. 160 mm tall 190 mm diameter

Firing

It has been fired to emulate the ancient firing conditions. The original pot would have been fired in an open wood fire, in close contact with the fuel, a process that leaves its mark on the clay as variations in the surface colour. However the very low temperatures achieved in open firings, also results in pots that are relatively weak, so this pot has been fired to a somewhat higher temperature to strengthen it, in a special firing process that allows me to achieve an authentic appearance to the pot.


Production

As with all my Museum Quality Replicas, this pot has been made, as the original would have been, entirely by hand from natural clay and using replicas of the types of tools that the Neolithic makers would have used.  In keeping with the original pot, the decoration has been applied using a bone.

Hello Graham and Sarah, I wanted to message because I ordered your holy grail pot for my dad's birthday and he is over the moon with it.
