*black clay


My first black clay results. They turned out surprisingly satisfiable. It is easier to see directly than on photographs, but the light fire clay pieces of the clay are shimmering like gold in the light. The white glaze has a really nice effect, you can see it best on the last picture where I turned the bowl upside down and the glaze melts with the unglazed bottom. {You can always klick on the pictures to see them bigger.}

Oh these are so beautiful! I love how they turned out, there's so much variation in the colour and they must be so satisfying to hold in your hands and turn every which way to see the light fall on them from different angles. 😍

Thank you so much, Stéphanie! After the first firing they were much much lighter, a medium brown tone and you could not see at all the light fire clay particles. They came out so nicely after the second firing, I'm really looking forward to make more with this type of clay!
