See what happens when a potter throws new light into an ancient art form. Bill and Maggie Finley of Finley Pottery make luminaries – pots full of holes to display light patterns.

Another good video! Thanks for posting it!
Oh this is fantastic. I want to do this. It seems to flow with poetry from the soul. I love your vids, I just found you and you have been awesome. This video about the soul from the clay is something very special. We all learn something new daily.
i really love this……my art teacher was lookin on youtube for some neat stuff…..and she came acrossed your work here….we have been trying it out…..i am right now covered in dry clay from tryin this out after school…..and i came acrossed your work and i just had to comment that i love it…..i made my bubble tonight out of mixed clay….red white and gray…..it looks nice…..but…i couldn’t get the top shut….i tryed twice today….i will soon get it….i love it very much…thanks
How do you get the candles in the ones that are sealed at top ?!?!
Awesome work!!
My school teaches this in ceramics class. I didn’t know it was uncommon.
Lovely items, inspiring 🙂
Very nice shapes which are beautiful whether they are cut or uncut, but I like the idea of light coming from earthen vessels, it is a spiritual creation.
Muy hermoso
I’m going to a Bruce Metcalf lecture here in town on Thursday! From what I’ve heard about him, he’s a militant craftsman that believes craft should be taught entirely separately from art!
Great pieces!
I thought that narrator was doing a parody in the first part of the video.
But I have nothing but respect for the potter… Amazing work!
Fantasticno! Prelepo!
This is a lovely video!!! I want to get to that point where I’m not concentrating on it like he said…I’ll keep practicing : )
those are beautiful works. I think I will incorporate the idea into my pinch pots… and thank you for putting beauty out there to be enjoyed.
I think their work is beautiful. =)

This is beatiful work. I am wondering though if the piece at the end of him throwith about 1:30sec in was that bisque? if so is it an agate clay mixed with stains etc? It looks beautiful 🙂
i did this with one of my own pieces in class a few months ago!! this is so cool to see someone doing it as their hobby!
Beautiful!! How can you order one?
I used to go to the lake when I was younger. Its a beautiful area.
