Spikey Grey Bowl

Another test of how well the grey glazes go. This had 3 glazes on it. Silver grey all over the outside, Midnight grey on the inside and Storm grey layered over the SIlver around the spikes at the top.

They were all brushed on, and it seems that Silver has to go on much thicker than I put it on, but it still came out satin. The Midnight grey on the inside though is lovely. Dark and glossy, but distinctly grey and not black.

All the recipes are in my post on the test tiles for these glazes. The bowl is PB103, a white stoneware, and it was fired to cone 9/1280C in oxidation.

Guest Bowls

Here we have 2 bowls made by other members of my club that show very interesting glaze interaction.

Bowl by Ian

Ian tried layering Apple Jade Green over Moss Green. It’s given some very interesting colours and effects, but as you can see it’s run like nothing else. Good thing he put it on a biscuit

Bowl by Gayle

Gayle has put Buttermilk on first, then dipped the rim in Moss Green and finally put a tiny bit of Pewter on the rim. Just the right amount, since I stressed to her how runny that glaze is. Over Buttermilk (and Moss too it looks like) Pewter goes quite brown, but it still has some metallic highlights where it is thicker. It’s also got some nice diffusion, a bit like the mocha diffusion we’re going to do soon.
