Some new treasures from the kiln...

Thursdays are always fun, because that is the day that both kilns at MAC are unloaded. Here are some of my successes from the reduction gas kiln.

The teapot that I made so long ago, I painted some delphinium flowers on and glazed with Piepenburg white.

Here is a 4" diameter bowl, also about 4" high. I painted the inside with blue stain and glazed with a celadon, the outside has blue stain with beach blue over it.





Here is a 8" x 3" high bowl. It has CR yellow on the inside, dark celadon on the outside, and a dip of the rim in Cushing Black.



And, finally, here is a 10" diameter plate in celadon, with a streak of Pete's Red.



Tomorrow I will publish some things that came from the soda kiln.

My First Teapot.

I think it is a success for a first attempt.

The front view. I need to fettle a bit to slim down the spout. It should taper better, so I've some work there to do.
I like how the lid turned out. You can see the handle drying on the blue glass vase in the background. I'll attach it tomorrow after I finish fettling the bottom of the teapot.
Here it is all assembled, just some dent and scratch removal and I'm ready to let it dry.
