There it is, no mess no fuss just a beautiful bowl. Thanks Matt :)

[@juliestrater439]

Beautiful bowl.

[@janlewis9099]

I love this angle!!! It helps soooo much you can see the thickness of the clay at each pull. So skilful

[@clifforddalton3067]

Watched this video again 02.02.2022. Gained more inspiration from this video than any of your others. I made one [my version] after watching this Matt. Thank you.

[@nancyltate2943]

Beautiful love watching your amazing work

[@menginmt]

Wow! I love your elegant style of throwing and embellishing. So much fun to watch. Hope you'll post photos when it's done. Thanks for all your great videos. I'm learning a lot!

[@pattya1679]

Very nice! Looking forward to seeing how it is when finished. Glad you are posting more!

[@Lyddiebits]

Ahh yes!!! Very cool Matthew! I really likes that you use a common tool to make the flowers 💐!

[@jackiemorrison6024]

Amazing Matthew! I learn so much from your videos!! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!!!

[@angrybear1838]

Matthew would love to see it when you have fired this one please show the finished beautiful carved platter

[@smyerscough1027]

Incredible!

[@roxysue8784]

Well when you put your head in there you can really see the size of that platter well! Beautiful work thank you for the demonstration, gave me a lot to think about!

[@clifforddalton3067]

When you measure a pot after throwing, I guess the width and height and 9 times out of ten I am within a 1/4" of being right. I have noticed your skill of also "virtually" knowing what the measurements will be. Configuring the pattern you do on this bowl is amazing Matt! you needed NO measurements around the rim and still lined everything up perfectly. Well done.

[@MatthewKellyPottery]

Thanks. Yes the familiarity with size comes with experience. I did use the trimming spinner from diamond core tools in the middle to help me portion the bowl up into sections before carving.

[@clifforddalton3067]

@@MatthewKellyPottery never the less Matt, it's a masterpiece :)

[@conniemezzo9370]

WOW! Another awesome piece! Thank you for sharing your extraordinary talent!

[@debbiewilsomn4314]

You are so very talented. Love everything you make.

[@roxysue8784]

When you start carving the magic happens!

[@annajanis1016]

WOW! Can’t wait to see how you glaze it! Amazing!

[@rebeccatodd414]

Blown away. 😍

[@smvegazeissig]

Thank you for sharing your talent!

[@-succulentplant-joan]

It's really cool

[@Stream_King]

Free hand carving. No net.

[@clifforddalton3067]

What tool are you using for cutting Matt? It seems to glide through relatively easy and precisely too. I Really love this carved bowl.

[@MatthewKellyPottery]

That’s an X-acto knife

[@Handmadebygas]

Another great video with pieces of tips to spark ideas 👍🏼. Tho still some questions- how this is the end when carving, isn’t that glass that your adding? Special kind?are there color choices? Is there a point of to hot for the glass? I would say no since you fire in a gas kiln. Thanks in advance for all you do 👍🏼

[@MatthewKellyPottery]

Yes those are glass beads. There are color choices but many colors will burn out or be gunky when fired. I use glass in my gas kiln also. Most glass melts around 1500-1700 F

[@darlink57]

Gorgeous bowl! Hope to see it finished. What colors of glass beads do you prefer?

[@MatthewKellyPottery]

I use either clear or blue mostly

[@marciasilviajohnson6461]

How much clay was that bowl, and what you put on the petals? Thank you🤗

[@MatthewKellyPottery]

That was 8lbs and I embedded glass beads in the rim after carving.

[@bradellison1345]

I am curious, why did you trim the inside rather than ribbing it before the torch?

[@MatthewKellyPottery]

Great question. There was a hump near the bottom that was messing up the inside curve of the bowl. I wanted to trim it out because pulling it was not an option anymore.

[@jaxeaton939]

What are those little balls you put on at the end??
