Trimming an Inset Flange Covered Jar

How to trim an inset lidded jar.

I like the trim line on the bottom to stop the glaze. It will also give a clear line when waxing the bottom to prepare for glazing 🙂.

Thank you, the little details are important to me and make the pots a bit better.

Your jars are stunning! I'd love 💛to see how you made the surface on the beige and white jar shown at the beginning of the video.

Hi Lisa, Thank you! The covered jar at the beginning of the video is a simple technique I developed with some trial and error. I took the bisqued jar and used thin masking tape to create the design. I then dipped or sprayed a stiff white (doesn’t run) glaze over the entire piece and then removed the tape before firing. I hope this helps you, Richard

@@richardmccoll9297 Thanks for your reply- you rock! I watched your closed lid vid and successfully made one that I’m please with (and two I wasn’t so please with 😆) I’ll watch, and work on taping at glaze time.

I would love to know how did you do the decoration in the thumbnail. Wax? Masking tape? 4 brushes attached and very good pulse? I love it!

Thank you. I use masking tape on bisque ware before glazing and then remove the tape before firing. Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing! I will 100% try that it looks awesome! @@richardmccoll9297
