Everything
Artist: Tim Curtin I've been working in clay for twenty years now, and what originally started as a lark has become a definite obsession. I love the ability to sit down with a lump of mud and turn it into something beautiful and long-lasting with nothing more than my hands and fire. These are *not* your run-of-the-mill corner store bottle toppers -- they are a labor of love, each truly one-of-a-kind, take hours to make, and are built to last! The business end is machined from the highest quality stainless available anywhere, which is then carefully attached to my creations using industrial-strength epoxy. Unlike most stoppers that are plated and can flake or pit, these are medical-grade and can be kept in a bottle for as long as you like. Perfect for anything from wine to perfume to vinegar.

Description:
Raspberry and light green wine bottle stopper. Hand-crafted in Vermont from stoneware clay, glazed, and then epoxied to the highest-quality stainless steel stoppers available anywhere. (Unlike most stoppers that are plated and can flake or pit, these are medical-grade and can be kept in a bottle for as long as you like.) These are *not* your run-of-the-mill corner store stoppers -- they are a labor of love, each truly one-of-a-kind, take hours to make, and are built to last!

Perfect for your favorite bottle of wine, vinegar, home-made spirits, or even perfume.

I named this stopper "Picasso" because its just a little extra surreal. I really love the glaze combination - the colors work together very well, and in bright light you can see the way the glaze crackled as it cooled. This is one of my favorite pieces so far -- I hope you love it as much as I do!

From tip to tail "Picasso" is just over 4.5 inches long.


All my creations come very carefully wrapped for safety. If you have special shipping needs, let me know and I'll certainly accommodate.
