pot?
The pinch pot is one of the oldest human methods of hand building.
Simple clay vessels such as bowls and cups can be shaped by
hand using the pinch pot processes.
Although there are exceptions, most pinched pottery is less than six
inches in diameter.
Pinch pots can range from chunky, substantial pieces
to very thin-walled and delicate pieces.
Pinch pot vessels can be decorated in many ways, but
there does seem to be an added affinity between
pinch pots and burnishing, a method to bring a gloss
to unglazed pieces
