Item details
The vase was rapidly heated up to 960°C, then placed in a barrel filled with combustible material, covered with wood shavings, and allowed to smoke. The amount of oxygen that is allowed during the firing and cooling process affects the resulting color of the glaze and the amount of crackle. Generally my practice is to starve oxygen by placing a lid on the barrel after 1-3 minutes. The process is highly unpredictable but often causes metallic colours to be revealed as well as dark colours, often bearing no resemblance to any glaze used! (as in this instance).

Full description
A beautiful hand built ornamental bud vase, made using thick coils which were then carved to create the twisted effect. After the first (bisque) firing ordinary earthenware glazes were applied with some additional oxides. The vase is 275mm/10.75" in height and with a diameter of 73mm/2.75" at the bottom and 63mm/2.5" at the top.
P&P is free for the UK. Overseas buyers please contact me for a quote for the postage. Other examples of vases can be viewed at www.ceramics9.com.
