. . . . . . . . . . What's so special about Crystalline Glaze Pottery? . . . . . . .
Well, the crystalline glazing process is a combination of art and science. It requires many extra steps beyond that of typical pottery glazing. Not to mention the failure rate with this type of glazing can be high; however, a successful firing can produce amazing results. Therefore, this whole labor-intensive process is worth all the effort.
Crystalline glazes are formulated special to grow these crystals in the glaze. When all the conditions are perfect, these crystals will grow at about 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. With this type of glaze, no two pieces will ever come out the same, and therefore you can’t ever duplicate any one piece.
To successfully fire Crystalline glazed pottery; you need to attach a foot ring made to fit each piece. Then make a catcher tray to place under each piece. This is to catch the glaze run off during firing, as these glazes are very fluid during the firing process.
Thank you for your interest in my work.
