Instructions

Published in "Reticulation Glazes" by Robin Hopper, in the May/Jun 2009 issue of Pottery Making Illustrated.


Putting the reticulation glazes over a colored slip allows the top glaze to move and the visible cracks to be colored between "islands" of glaze. Any colored slip will do, but one of the most interesting is usually black, as it intensifies the color of the covering glaze.

With reticulation glazes applied heavily over the slip and fired at cones 04, 6 and 9-10, and with added colorants, a wide range of textural possibilities can be developed.
