Large, voluminous, narrow-necked forms are one of the most challenging forms a potter can make, and in Beautiful Bottles: Throwing Bulbous Pots with Narrow Necks, Sam Scott draws on his forty plus years of experience to help you master them with ease. You’ll pick up great tips like the importance of leaving supporting clay at the bottom that can be trimmed into a graceful curve that matches the inside profile and how to attach a thrown ring at the leather hard state and throw that into a graceful neck. Plus Sam shares his technique for making and attaching organic handbuilt necks to wheel thrown vase forms. If you have found yourself frustrated with voluminous bottle forms, Sam will help you ease that frustration and master them once and for all!
