So, here’s that platter again. Great example to illustrate how a glaze can change (or in this case soda on a flashing slip) during the decal firing. The browns got a little toastier, but the blue (a glaze) got muted. Since I knew I was going to have to decal this platter from the beginning, I went with some “safe” (or rather “predictable) slips and glazes. A little dissappointed the blue faded (loooove browns and blues) but still really dig the platter.
Here’s some other recent pots. Most of these are out of the Suburban Soda Kiln (not the wood kiln).
Another wedding platter, Turner White Glaze, goes milky in the decal firing…
A line of dishes I’ve been working on. Meant to be a line I can easily put into long term production that is reliable, durable, rustic and elegant. A dark stoneware clay body, a stencil motif with a shino slip is applied at the leather hard stage. Then glazed in a white shino with turner white sprayed over. Then a simple decal of a brush stroke.
