Deco Donut Kintsugi Teapot

I've been a practicing artist for many years in two dimensional art but relatively new to ceramics. Teapots and donuts are considered very challenging forms best left to experienced potters, so of course I set myself this goal. My design for the teapot is also influenced by a love for Art Deco. Despite my efforts, the teapot cracked in the final glaze fire, so I then incorporated the Japanese kintsugi technique of repairing cracked ceramics with gold. Although no longer functional, it remains a beautiful art object.
