can't have it all

Happy New Year from Ceramic Matters

we did not take time off

had to and are still working on assignments
(more on the work in the next post)

in November we did a post about

a prototype and mould for a

trophy vase for a wedding



~ black glazed trophy - ceramic matters ~

~ black glazed and white glazed trophies
- ceramic matters ~






The black glaze “shivered” –
the clay shrinks more than the glaze during the firing, this causes for the glaze to “peal” off the clay -
mainly on the rim and angles/edges.

Very little one can do; other than to

re-make the pieces.
