HOW CERAMICS ARE MADE
1. CLAY BODY IS FORMED
A potter can form his product in many ways. Two main ways are wheel throwing or hand building.
2. DRYING – 7-10 days. Clay must be left to completely dry before going into the kiln. If there is moisture left in the clay it may explode in the kiln. The clay shrinks as it dries.
3. SANDING – final finishing touches before firing
4. BISQUE FIRING- 36 hours. Ceramic pottery pieces are put in the kiln for the 1st firing. This is when the clay is turned into a stone. The kiln takes between 15-20 hours to reach about 1000 C . It takes about 24 hours to cool.
5. GLAZING – Glaze can be applied in many ways, poured on, sponged on, painted on, dipped, and sprayed.
6. FIRING- 24 hours. The pottery pieces go in the kiln for their last firing. This time the kiln temperature reaches about 1250 C. The glaze turns into a glass like coating and becomes one with the ceramic piece.

Full description

I threw this vase on my pottery wheel using strong white stoneware clay and, while the clay was still damp, altered the shape of the base into a set of three feet..

I've finished it in a lovely mid blue glaze with a contrasting runny dark blue reactive glaze drizzled over the rim.

It measures 17 high and 9cm across the rim.

Weight 730gms.

Microwave, oven and dishwasher safe.

Items will be well packed--as they are all unique, I get very upset if they get broken.

I am happy to combine shipping and of course I am happy to post to outside the UK--contact me for costs.

Thanks for looking.
