Dishware & High Fired Decorative Porcelain
Cone 10 Oxidation PorcelainPorcelain clay is thrown on the potter’s wheel and/or hand built. Each piece is fired twice in an electric kiln -- first, a bisque firing to 1800°F, then a glaze firing to 2300°F. All of the glazes are made by the artist from raw materials, based on tested formulas. These pieces are functional, intended for household use, and are microwave and dishwasher safe. This is an example of three of the glazes I have available.
