Glazing with Spotted Purple for Clay Buddies mini-NCECA

Reading some Silas Marner tonight and thought you all might like this section: Silas Marner ”It was one of his daily tasks to fetch his water from a well a couple of fields off, and for this purpose, ever since he came to Raveloe, he had had a brown earthenware pot, which he held as his most precious utensil, among the very few conveniences he had granted himself. It had been his companion for twelve years, always standing on the same spot, always lending its handle to him in the early morning, so that its form had an expression for him of willing helpfulness, and the impress of its handle on his palm gave a satisfaction mingled with that of having the fresh clear water. One day as he was returning from the well, he stumbled against the step of the stile, and his brown pot, falling with force against the stones that overarched the ditch below him, was broken in three pieces.  Silas picked up the pieces and carried them home with grief in his heart. The brown pot could never be of use to him anymore, but he struck the bits together and propped the ruin in its old place for a memorial.” pg.18 -- Thanks, John
