My Thursday night Intermediate Wheel class has been asking to make teapots for months, so this session we took the plunge! We did several projects to lead up to this form, like throwing spheres, throwing enclosed forms, and pulling lots of handles. The pots shown above were made by throwing an enclosed form, trimming it on a chuck then cutting off its lid. Then we added thrown spouts and pulled handles. Also in the photo are some of the jars that preceded the teapots. I think they turned out great! The pots in the photo were made by (vaguely from left to right) Lorraine DeSalvo, Carolyn Neuendorffer, Melanie Choe, Andrea Waters, Jeri Holloway, Kuniko Wallis, Quianna Douglas, Margaret Lukomska, and Jamie Consuegra.
