Targine

Here is something that I loved making and with practive I am definitely going to produce more of these. A targine is an African cooking pot with a high lid and a shallow base.

I founf a picture of one with a domed lid which I liked and it is much easier to through than a cone shaped lid. I used Shiga red glaze and then a pale green glaze dribbled over the top, this broke the glaze into interesting brown and blue patterns.

I also made a rice vessel to go with the targine - we will be putting it through its paces this week and cooking an African vegetable stew in it and I will let you know how it goes......

Thanks for looking
