Stoneware Wheel Thrown Bowl - Buttermilk Glaze

I love this bowl and continue to make the shape, bigger or smaller.  And I love the lines that are created by using a rutile and iron wash.  The lines always seem to come out differently, sometimes they are pencil thin like I brushed them, then other times the lines spread and flow.  That's reduction firing for you.  Like the outside of the bowl.  Sometimes when I trim I purposely make the trimming tool shatter, which makes groove patterns in the clay, and the glaze loves these grooves.  Magical things happen.


I listed this bowl in my Etsy shop this morning.  You can see more photos and details at:
