Seconds Harvest Moon 246/11 Bowl

This year, the watchers among us would have noticed that the Harvest Moon seemed closer to the earth than usual with an atmospheric golden glow. Captured by Kerry in Harvest Moon the moon, whose light has traditionally allowed farmers to work into the night and bring in crops from the field, comes glowing, bigger and brighter, over a field of harvested corn, as if it had come to rest on the rolling hillside. Much like Van Gogh’s La Moisson, Kerry wanted to capture the nostalgia of farm life and work on the land. The wheat field is stripped down to vivid yellow stalks, the corn bundles neatly tied and the reapers tools are laid to rest as the Harvest supper commences. This is a design so apt for a new pasta bowl shape, with boughs of clouded trees curving over the harvest as if nature itself wanted to bend with the harvesters at work.

What is a Moorcroft second? All our art pottery is closely inspected before it leaves the Moorcroft factory and the selection process is as rigorous as any in the world. As a result, not all pieces emerge unblemished in their quality assessment. The fault or faults may be in the finish of a piece, whether it be a tiny tubeline miss, an incorrectly painted petal, or a small glaze run. Seconds are not ‘red-dotted’, all of them are far too good for that, and each seconds piece has a charm and individuality of its own. Any fault is not structural and the piece can still be used for the purpose it was made.
