These
pots were fired in a kiln that uses wood as a fuel. It is fired
over many days, so that the ash can settle on the pots. When the
kiln reaches temperature, salt is introduced into the kiln. The
accumulated ash and salt melt to form the beautiful surface you
see. Some colored slips and stains have been applied before the
firing as design elements, and the insides are glazed, to make
these pots totally safe and useable. All are made with porcelain
clay except where noted.
The work shown below is available for order.
