A few pots from the last firing, 1st Jan 2013

Here are some of the pieces from the last electric firing. Some were tests of new glaze and clay combinations..although I quite like the finish from the transparent ash glaze, the cream-white ones in particular need a darker clay under the slip to achieve the effect I'm looking for; something similar to Kohiki pottery.
