Double Frozen Pond by Gosia Gomułkiewicz

Double Frozen Pond Mug by Gosia Gomułkiewicz

This Double Frozen Pond Mug by Gosia Gomułkiewicz is a white stoneware mug that dazzles with its interplay of colors. Inside, layers of AMACO Albany Slip Brown, Spectrum Running Hot Chowder, and AMACO Iron Lustre create fiery copper-orange and golden swirls. The same Frozen Pond glazing technique applied outside is mirrored inside, a detail evident in the pre-firing photo, where the dotted patterns and layered glazes hint at the final shimmering effect. The glossy finish produces shifting highlights and rainbow flashes, evoking molten metal or sunlight dancing on water.

On the exterior, deep AMACO Obsidian blends with Spectrum Running Hot Chowder dots and AMACO Iron Lustre overlays to form cool blue cells and icy patterns against a dark backdrop. This use of the Frozen Pond technique on both surfaces creates a striking unity between interior and exterior. The dramatic contrast of warm and cold tones gives the impression of a “frozen pond,” while the glaze’s reflective surface makes the colors appear alive from every angle.

The overall impression of Double Frozen Pond by Gosia Gomułkiewicz is a seamless balance of fire and ice, nature and art. It feels like a miniature landscape captured in ceramic form—fiery depths within and frozen beauty without. More than a functional mug, it’s a captivating decorative piece and a clear demonstration of masterful glaze application.
