The Crackle Shell Jar by Ballarat-based ceramicist John O'Loughlin is wheel-thrown and glazed in a soft cloud grey with satin finish. The surface is finely crazed with a detailed crackle pattern making the pieces appear aged and full of character. Setting this piece apart is the off-kilter shell element that sits out from the surface adding sculptural intrigue to this utilitarian jar form..

This work expresses aspects of John O’Loughlin’s practice including traditional wheel-throwing and surfaces that evoke an historic narrative.
