A pot like this could be used for a lot of different things. You can make coffee mugs and bowls to eat out of. With different hand techniques, you can make your dinnerware. I can either leave it like that or I could squeeze it in this way to make the top smaller. I am going to leave the top of it like this because I like the varied surface at the top and it will take the glaze a little differently than the bottom and then after you sign your name to it, then you set it aside, so that it can start to dry.
