Raku-fired ceramic sphere sculpture by artist Michael Mick, featuring a striking crackle glaze surface with a dramatic split form revealing a matte black interior. This sculptural vessel highlights the unpredictability and beauty of the raku firing process, with intricate crackling across the white glaze contrasting against the raw, textured opening.
The organic, fractured design gives the piece a bold, contemporary presence while maintaining the handcrafted character of studio pottery. Both decorative and artistic, it functions as a sculptural object rather than a traditional vessel, making it ideal for display.
Michael Mick (1949–2001) was an American ceramicist and sculptor based in Florida, known for his distinctive raku-fired works. His textured, abstract forms—often inspired by pod and geode shapes—reflect a balance of precision and organic, unpredictable surface effects.
