My Last Pottery item of the year

My Last Pottery item of the year

This is the last piece of Pottery I have made this year .
​It didn't come out as nicely as I hoped.
​The pattern doesn't show as much as I would have liked.

It was the glaze I used ...it was very thick and a flaky glaze ..so you have little control over the glaze .
It's a Eggshell glaze.
As you put it on it dries almost immediately then lifts up in huge flakes ..hence some of the lack of glaze around the rim ...when the flakes may have fallen off during the firing 

Having said that I do think it looks super cute on my countertop 
And it is totally functional as a platter for food etc..
It's a good size of 13" x 9"

Thanks so much for popping by ...I hope the preparations for Christmas
Are going well 

I am about to go and clean and prepare all the vegetables for the big day

Many Blessings to you all 

Janet
