Glazing Pottery


I am doing a test glazing on my pottery bowl with three glazes. Two are the concept glazes, dark papaya and dark grey. The other glaze is the Duncan Courtyard glaze Saddle Clove. Since I will fire this piece at a cone 06 - low fire- I won't being using wax resist on the bottom.
The entire piece will be painted with the Saddle Clove with at least 2 coats. I will then water down the concept glazes, put them in condiments bottles and drip them over the bowl.

That casserole dish will have the Saddle Clove inside and at the top of the dish including the handles. The side and bottom will have Seafoam Sateen. I had a successful firing of this combination and I loved the results.
