Well, the OmVed clay pots survived their bisque firing. Will give them their final firing next week as still tossing up whether to glaze them on the inside or not. I have a low fire ash glaze recipe to test using Borax Frit to bring down the melting point of the ash to around 1080, if it works I think I will got for it??? 😬 #terracotta #terracottapots #roman #romanpots #romanpottery #foundobject #wildclay #handmade #bisque #bisquefire #spoon #food #foodjar #orange #nearlythere #onthewheel #pottery #ceramics #sitespecific #earthenware #lid #thebrockleypotter #twisted (at Brockley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBlQ61bDlf7/?igshid=1b26h9m0932o9

Another Roman inspired pot. This one is going to be ash glazed using ash and clay from the @omvedgardens site. The pattern is based on patterns found in the pots at the Highgate Roman Kiln site. Hopefully I can make a nice runny ash glaze that will pool in the detail bringing the design to life? I am going to finish the pot with a spoon handle using the Victorian spoons excavated from the site, the third photo shows a mock up but I think I need a different spoon or to work on the shape of the one in the photo? Anyway fingers crossed this one fires ok and I can get the ash glaze to work well 🤞🏼 #roman #romanpots #beadedrim #beadrimmedjar #romanpottery #flutedneck #pottery #ashglaze #spoon #pottery #potter #handmade #pattern #spots #lines #omved #thrown #makersgonnamake (at Brockley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBVLKieDEdM/?igshid=xo1kiu0nuqep

WIP: Working on some stoneware versions of the Roman bead rimmed forms inspired by the pots uncovered in the Archeological dig at Highgate Woods. The stoneware pots will be glazed with Ash from the logs and Clay collected from the OmVed site. This one will have a lid which will be adorned with one of the Victorian spoons that was dug up in site. #roman #romanpots #beadrimmedjar #beadrim #pot #wildclay #ashglaze #stoneware #historical #historicalpots #pottery #clay (at Brockley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBS4ktxjFFJ/?igshid=x5kmwyfc1xae
