so much goes on behind the scenes...
If you are an Australian potter you should consider putting in an entry - link here to learn more about it: http://porthackingpotters.blogspot.com.au/p/2016-national-competition.html
so I am doing some handbuilding just to keep the clay withdrawal symptoms at bay...
the surface is stamped with the design shown which is a bisque fired stamp of my own based on the lilly pilly fruit.

Love that stamp. Inspiration everywhere...
thanks Elephant's Child... you are right - nature continuously inspires :)
Shows are like ducks floating serenely in water, with feet paddling madly to stay afloat!
I've never heard of lilly pilly fruit but you made a great stamp from them!
lily pilly fruit never heard of it, must look it up, the casserole looks great with the stamp
Hi Linda, Hi Smartcat, the Lilly Pilly is the common name for an Australian Native rainforest plant that has been cultivated to grow in home gardens. If you are keen enough the fruit can be used to make a jelly. Oh and that's a wall sconce not a casserole.. I made some ages ago and raku fired them and thought I'd do another pair. I'm hoping to do a raku firing next year so will only bisque fire these for now. Thanks for your comments, its always nice to see who has taken the time to look at my blog :)
