I'm really growing to love the tactile, satin-smooth surfaces that dolomite glazes produce. When used over other glaze recipes and textures, they can also create interesting rivulets, pinholes and craters. Here are a few pieces from the last couple of electric firings, which on the whole were very successful:
 |
| Large vase, height 9 inches |
 |
| Vase, close up |
 |
| Hand-pinched dish |
 |
| Hand-pinched dish interior |
 |
| Hand-pinched, oval dish, approx. 5 inches long |
 |
| Bowl, height approx. 3.5 inches |
 |
| Bowl, height approx. 3.5 inches |
 |
| One-pint tankard |
 |
| Bowl, approx 7 inches wide |
 |
| Bottle vase, height approx. 6 inches |
 |
| Small coffee cup |
 |
| Hand-built vase, height approx 7 inches |
 |
| Carved sake cup |
 |
| Vase, height approx. 8.5 inches |
I'll be bringing these and many other pieces to the Olive and Stitch, artisan fair at the Civic Centre, Alsager, Cheshire this Saturday, 19th of November and the 17th of December:
If you happen to live locally or are passing through the area, why not drop by and say hello?
Thanks for reading!
