Description

This piece started out on my wheel here in my Pittsboro studio. It was hand carved into this flowery shape during its leather hard stage. It is 10 inches tall & glazed with several of my blue & turquoise crystalline glazes to give this everglade gradient. The inside is glazed with a clear liner glaze. All of the crystalline glazes that I use are original glazes invented myself. Each crystalline glazed piece is unique in that they cannot be duplicated. The crystals are never the same from one piece to another. I use high fire porcelain, & fire to a peak temperature of 2350oF - aka cone 11. What this means is that the porcelain is fully vitrified & watertight even without the glazes. Because of the way that I fire & the glazes that I use, all of my work is fully functional - watertight, lead free, dishwasher safe, & microwave safe. Everglade Crystalline Glazed Pod Vase
