Foot-soaking...er... -washing Bowl

Foot Bowl in Seafoam Green

I sold one of my foot-soaking bowls to a customer this past week who will be using it during a ritual blessing to celebrate an expectant mother. Friends will use my bowl to wash the feet of the pregnant friend during a ritual called the Blessingway.

Apparently, the woman who called me about purchasing the bowl had talked to Seagrove Potter Tom Gray, a mutual friend, and Tom referred her to me. Thanks Tom. I had two extra foot-soaking bowls that I made for the last order from a hotel in New York City that purchases the bowls for their hotel room bathrooms. So, I was able to glaze one and fire it the same week that the customer ordered it.
