The handmade-ness is beautifully -- or shall I say, "brutally" evident, and the sprig of mistletoe is just the right touch for it. Being Japanese, I would have searched for a third berry (we have a thing for preferring odd numbers).
I'm smiling because I did have a third berry but the leaves with it fell off so I had to use a substitute piece of mistletoe - which only had 2 berries!
Beautiful simplicity Hazel. I love the way you have presented this with that single sprig of mistletoe. As we get older we appreciate beautiful things like this. Well done to,your daughter. Cement is an amazing compound used for all sorts these days! Polished it's so beautiful.
A lovely simplistic bowl in a modern material and design -- Love the deep glaze - giving it a look of being wet - Love the still life you created with the addition of a sprig of holly ! So wonderful to have such personal gifts !
I think I shall use it for earrings when I take them off at bedtime but guess it's not relevant for you! (They also come in fruit bowl size - or could be purely decorative.)

Or perhaps two berries and one leaf on my sprig = 3!
Danke, du auch!
