Wheel-thrown White Salmon with Speckles stoneware | 4" diameter × 3" tall | Fully glazed interior | Oregon clay
Same glaze. Completely different clay. Entirely its own thing.
This planter was wheel-thrown in my Portland studio from White Salmon with Speckles — a porcelain-stoneware hybrid with a tight, luminous body and non-toxic black glass frit speckles that behave very differently from their dark clay counterparts. Where Satin Oribe on dark clay reads moody and earthy, on White Salmon it fires to something almost metallic — a soft, silvery celadon that shifts between blue-gray and sage-green depending on the light, with the carved dots reading as hammered texture rather than deep shadow.
The effect is quieter than the other two planters in this family, and that quietness is entirely intentional. This is the one that doesn't need to announce itself. It simply sits there looking like something that has been on a very good windowsill for a very long time.
The hand-carved dot texture wraps the entire lower body — each oval pressed by hand, the glaze collecting in each one to create a slightly deeper tone than the smooth surface above. It is the same carved vocabulary as its siblings, speaking in a softer register.
The interior is fully glazed in that same soft Seafoam celadon — cool, clean, and genuinely beautiful to look into.
At 4" wide and 3" tall this is the most compact of the trio — perfect for a small succulent, an air plant, a single cutting, or any small object that deserves a vessel with this much considered restraint. No drainage holes — designed for a grow pot nestled inside.
Meet its siblings — the Pearl Planter and the Cerulean Planter — three carved dot vessels, three completely different glaze stories. Each sold individually; all three together are something else entirely.
One of a kind. White Salmon with Speckles is a clay body used sparingly in the studio — this particular Seafoam exists only once.
