Incense holder - fractured gloss

A ritual essential, the Incense Holder is designed to add warmth and ease to your scent routine. Minimal in aesthetic, this petite form is 7.5 cm in length, 5 cm at its widest point and 3.7 cm in height - created with function in mind, stand her in your space and utilise her practically.

Our intention for this glaze is to bring about a calm and grounding atmosphere while highlighting the beauty in the fractures caused by extreme pressure. The surface of this incredible glaze is covered with millions of tiny fractures covering the form. This surface texture is widely known as a crackle glaze and is caused by a thermal expansion mismatch between body and glaze during the firing process. As the kiln atmosphere begins to cool, the thin layer of glaze is constricted and begins to shatter, creating a wave of hairline features to wash across the piece. The soft matte grey band to the base of the form, while being signature to Marloe Marloe works, also allows for contrast in visual texture.
