Bucket of Eels: Mouth Pots for Sale (early access)

Bucket Of Eels

a series of 15 pots that all look like mouths with slime coming out of them
mouth pots, exactly what they sound like

Today’s eel: Today's eel is not an eel at all. I thought about trying to do a bunch of research to figure out some clever way to link an eel species to ceramics in some way, but I'm writing this newsletter from an airport and I'll be sending it from a train and I don't have time to do that. Please forgive me.

The point of this specific email is pretty straightforward anyway. I'm selling a small number of pieces of pottery, to raise money for the IFJ Safety Fund to support journalists working in Palestine. These are not the best made pots. They're mostly not food safe. The photos are not great. They will definitely not arrive by Christmas. But I think they're kind of cool and maybe you do too?

And, as newsletter subscribers, you're learning about this sale before the general public. I have no idea if these pots will sell quickly or not, but at the very least you get a head start.
