Phil Mayhew (American, Tennessee) Iridescent Crystalline Vessel – Stoneware Hand thrown stoneware vessel with layered reactive glazes in cobalt blue, lavender, ochre, cream, and smoky violet tones. The rounded body rises into a narrow neck with a wide flared rim. Crystalline glaze movement and clustered crater textures create strong surface variation throughout the piece. Phil Mayhew is known for American studio pottery focused on glaze chemistry and atmospheric firing effects. His work often combines traditional wheel thrown forms with flowing crystalline and reactive glaze techniques that produce highly individual surfaces. Signed examples of his pottery are collected for their one of a kind kiln results and strong decorative presence. The interior glaze pull at the mouth of the vessel shows dramatic crystalline feathering created during firing. Signed by the artist. Curated Private Collection — K² Pottery Studios
