Ooooh...

I love how this one came out!  It was the last one of my bowls to come out of the kiln this last semester. I wasn't able to get it until several days after my class ended but it was worth the wait.


It's just a simple bowl.  Nothing fancy.  In fact, I wasn't very happy with the bottom of the outside before I glazed it.  But, the glaze changed everything!  I LOVE the colors!


The golden color on the outside with the black speckles is so pretty.  The inside is glazed with the same color (carbon trap shino) but turned out orange.  What a fun surprise.  And, the all over silvery shine is awesome!


I would have loved to have kept this one.  However, it was the only one that came out in colors I thought my mother-in-law would like.  So, I gave it to her for Christmas.  Lucky girl!  :-)

I'm planning to take ceramics again next semester and I'll definitely be using this glaze again!

So pretty! I'm going to say something that makes me cringe when people say it to me... "you could sell those..." Yarn bowls!

oh man...I'm lovin' it! I have a thing for pottery. Can you tell me what type of glaze it was?

Thank you for your answer on my blog about the glaze. A friend and I are venturing into creating with pottery. So far my pieces are small. Incense burner size small...I am your newest follower.
