Glaze tests nobody asked for
· Stoneware · Glaze tests · Small batches
Six test tiles, one weekend, a spreadsheet I'll pretend to keep updated. A satin white broke unexpectedly blue where it pooled — the kind of accident I'll spend a month trying to repeat on purpose.
I make stoneware in a small studio: mugs that fit the hand, bowls that stack, a few pieces that only exist to test a glaze. This site is where I keep process notes, kiln logs, and the occasional batch that's ready to leave the shelf. Making is slow on purpose — I'd rather finish six honest pots than forty rushed ones.
Studio notes on ceramics, slow making, and things built by hand. I tend to return to the same subjects more than once; the second pass is always slower, and better.
If this note resonated, the journal index has more, and the gallery holds related pieces. For a hello, try contact.
