The Bobwhites … $350
Growing up in Southern California I was very familiar with California and Gambrel’s quails. Now at home in South Carolina we have the Bobwhite quail and look, here’s the whole family.
This work is 14” by 19” and constructed by hand from a red earthenware clay body. It was bisque fired to cone 04 (1945 degrees F), then glazed with three coats of low temperature glazes and traditionally glaze fired to cone 06 (1828 degrees).
Here are some “in progress” photos as I was working on its design through completion.
