I build about any kind of pot ,if anyone want me to make a certain type of pot,I do them by commission,send me a drawing or picture,
As for glazing this pot I'll need to wait and let it finish drying then do the first firing.Its mid-range clay so I may leave it as is.

I can't tell by looking, Clarence, but will the clay bisque fire white? Looks as if it might.

I think I'd leave it bisque, but then if it were planted it would dry out more quickly because bisque without glaze is more porous. It's going to be beautiful either way. Do you make your own glazes? Something in verdigris would be pretty, with maybe a little copper oxide thrown in, if you decide to glaze it.

Beautiful!

this will turn red if I just fire it to cone 4,fired to cone 5-9 it will turn all white,I mix my own glazes.A little hint for thoses who want something off the wall,go to a big box store,ask if they will give you the grinding off their key making machine,mix it with some clear glaze.It works great for a off green color.
