Finally pulling things out of the kiln that I actually like.  Woohoo!

clay body: Tom Coleman porcelain

construction: slab built, impress the clay with the textures first before picking the slab up to make the cone.  Check out Sandi Pierantozzi’s free video on slab building of tripod pots for the technique.

glazes: Fire Opal Art (cone 6 glaze) accents over Elaine’s Best celadons

glaze application: Sprayed on.  Pretty thin coat. Got a bit of “orange peel” and lack of translucency.  The insides are more translucent, so I think they may have been in a “cold” spot in the kiln.  Still like ‘em, though. 🙂

glaze firing:  cone 9 reduction/gas
