The pot that started them all, pot #1. The first of over 50,000 pots I've handcrafted, making a living as a potter for most of my life. I made this in 7th grade. It's pure luck that my parents kept it and passed it on to me. Looks like a earthenware or terracotta with a low-fire or mid-range glaze, electric fired, made in the year 2000.

Welcome to the Jewel Gallery. Every time I fire a pottery kiln, I save the one or two best pots from the firing, the "Jewels" from the kiln. I've been collecting this art for years, all the way back to the first pot ever made in the year 2000. I built this "Jewel Gallery" for this art to live in, to show how the art evolves over time, when you dedicate your life to making a living as a potter. 

Each Jewel is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, made from handmade paper by Sienna Cherrico, written and signed by Joel Cherrico.
