Möbius Series Continued (III)

First a short prelude to how this Möbius Series began, just over a year ago, with a "pure", white-clay Möbius band (I love the purity and serenity of white clay). 34cmx27cmx20cm. Further images of this piece here, unfired + short intro. and here, fired:



 The white clay casting beautiful shadows


 And this angle view illustrates ...

 ... the reason for the shape of this shadow.

And then came this; again a very pure, simple Möbius band, with the addition of a widening edge that merges into the saddle plane, i.e. where the concave and the convex meet - the crucial point in a Möbius sculptural form. (Called a saddle plane because it is a similar shape to the top of a saddle, a concave crossing over a convex).
