The aventurine has sparkling crystals set in a dep amber glass that creates an intricate pattern as it interacts with the glaze below. The crystalline on the body has subtle green primary crystals set on a ground that varies from amber to pink, all set with a dusting of tiny secondaries. Photographed at various locations in the city of Edinburgh, 2025.
