Instructions


The glaze combination used on the pots in this photo is Crystalline Blue applied to the entire pot as the first glaze, followed by Lehman Blue applied to the top 80% of the exterior, followed by Trout applied to the top 65% of the exterior. The pieces were fired to cone 9–10 in reduction in a gas kiln.

This glaze is applied by dipping pots, and it works well layered in combination with other glazes. When used on its own, it is a glossy blue color.
