Pinch-Pot Ball Whistle
Porcelain pinch-pots bowls were combined to make this globe-like whistle. I intended to drill finger holes so that it was more flute-like, but discovered that the shape lent itself to hard burnishing to a nice sheen.
The green ware piece is roughly 4" in diameter with very thin walls. We'll have to see if this has possibilities as a suspended Christmas tree ornament,,,obviously, weight might determine the practicality. CommentsPaul Chenoweth

This is brilliant in its simple form Paul. I love that it started as a pinch pot. The lowly pinch pot elevated to horn-like status.

Love the finger hole too! Now I have to try encorporating one into one of my crazy noise makers.
