Successful experiments with dolomite glazes!

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!
