These are some of the results of my last firing over the weekend. Over the last couple of months I did quite a lot of glaze/surface tests.
All the pots are fired at 1260 degrees Celsius to be frostproof – quite important in Switzerland and the neighbour countries. I am using this kind of pots for my Kusamono.
Enjoy,
Carlos

Re: Straight from the Kiln
some interesting designs.
Personally I like the last pot in the picture set - the squat cube.

An easily recognised object, if included in shot, would give an indication of size. They must be small if destined for Kusamono. Lots of character there.

Re: Straight from the Kiln
Good work Carlos!
My favourite (and a pot that would be very welcome in my collection) is the second one....less fiddly, therefore more 'immediate', and a glaze to die for.
Please accept the 'fiddly' as a VERY slight criticism that I apply to myself too!
