Glaze 119
2 little cups fired in the fast gire wood kilns at
@oxfordkilns back in May of this year
The glaze recipe is limestone dust got from a college that does stonecarving courses near Stratford, east London. Plus clay dug in Norwood, south London thanks to
@goldenearthstudio , and ash from
@pizzeriapappagone wood fired pizza oven in Finsbury Park, north London.
The glaze was very runny at 1300⁰c and i needed to grind the bottoms of a bunch of pots from this firing. To avoid this in future I need to tweak the recipe or use it at a lower temperature, but i really love how the glaze runs in rivers down these cups, its that classic wood ash glaze effect and its gorgeous.
