Richard, I can’t thank you enough for sharing this technique with us! I am trying to make an urn for a friend of mine and emotionally. It’s been very difficult, but also I’m not that great at throwing large forms. I tend to stick with the smaller things. I can easily center three or 4 pounds but when it comes to much over that, then I struggle, hopefully I can get this done. I have six days to finish the piece. Thank you.🤞🙏😉-Liana

Do you happen to know why this happens? Is it just that sodium silicate creates a quick drying layer that then can be cracked? I think I have seen people do this technique with plain old slip without any sodium silicate in it and it works as well..

@richardmccollceramics 2 ай бұрын

The sodium silicate when dried on the clay creates a thin shell, almost like an egg shell, on the clays surface. When the clay is stretched from the inside the shell just cracks and is so well stuck to the clay it cracks the clay with it. Be careful because it is called water glass for a reason, the small pieces can cut you. The surface is sometimes dried with powdered clay but I find this is easier and works better. A variation is to apply a colored slip, allow it to dry to the touch and then the sodium silicate, dry it and stretch. The way to get the surface to crack without the sodium silicate is to dry the surface only and keep the inside of the wall plastic which can be done with thicker pieces.

How did you get that beautiful blue on the plate at 7:44?

@richardmccollceramics 2 ай бұрын

Hi John, The plate is made of a white stoneware so the colors tend to be clearer and deeper. The plate was glazed with a high calcium celadon glaze with 1 1/2% red iron oxide so that when cobalt carbonate wash is brushed on it you get a very nice deep blue. On the clear version of this glaze cobalt is much more vibrant. There is mottling on other places on the plate which is produced by brushing a cobalt and rutile wash. The rutile lightens/bleaches the cobalt and creates tiny crystals which make the lighter blue. The plate was fired at cone 10 (2330 degrees F) in a reduction atmosphere in a gas kiln. This helps to create a beautiful depth to the glazes. I hope this helps you to create beautiful pots. Richard
