I threw this piece on my pottery wheel using stoneware clay. After letting the piece slowly dry to a "leather-hard" state, I refined the final shape on the wheel with a variety of pottery trimming tools. After another period of slow-drying over several days until the piece becomes "bone dry," it was bisque-fired (a lower-temperature firing that allows me to handle the piece without it easily breaking, but still porous enough to absorb glaze for the final firing). I meticulously taped the surface over many hours (sometimes days), applied a ceramic glaze, let it dry overnight, removed the tape, refined the edges, and then the piece was fired in a ceramic kiln to over 2,100F (1,100C).

After cooling, I wet-sanded the bottom (or foot) four times to achieve a glass-like finish.

All of the materials used in this process are made in the US Midwest and are free of lead or any harmful chemicals. All pieces are food, dishwasher, and microwave safe ...though handwashing is recommended.

Thank you! - Mat
