Food project: ready for firing

My quirky food vessel is finally ready for its bisque firing. It has been a struggle coming to terms with the new clay I'm trying out. However, the finishing stages were great. I have used shellac resist to introduce some subtle textures. The brown colour will burn off and the whole piece will be fired with a white glaze to fulfil the brief we've been set.

Now I just need to think of what kind of food I can serve in it on Friday for our Christmas buffet.
