Stoneware Wheel Thrown Baking Dish - Buttermilk Glaze

I added this small baking dish to my Etsy shop yesterday.  It's one of the smallest I make, and so great to have in the kitchen.  It holds 1-1/2 cups.  Again it has the Buttermilk glaze.  Why do I like that glaze so much?!  On white stoneware it looks so pure and clean, and it picks up all the throwing lines.  On red stoneware it can vary with every reduction firing.  Sometimes the glaze has speckles from the iron content, it could have a golden or light brown cast, and the piece shows the double dipping lines which I really like.  I often do an entire kiln load with Buttermilk glaze and know that my other glazes feel hurt and ignored.
