Ever think - hey what would be the absolute perfect bowl for Doritos? No well you've been missing out.
Ok so this piece wasn't just made for Doritos but hey when you have a triangle opening on a bowl... Ok but seriously, this hand thrown pot has everything going for it, unique shape, colour and pattern.
The Soda-firing process leaves this piece with both a gloss and matte glaze along with unique and interesting colours. So if you're ready to level up or start your pottery collection this is the piece for you!
What is Soda-firing?
Soda-firing is the process in which sodium oxide (soda) is introduced into the hot kiln. Once inside, it will vaporize and interact with the red hot surfaces of the work leaving beautiful flashes of colour and glaze. As the sodium vapour flows through and around the glowing hot pottery, it binds to the silica molecules on their surfaces to create a glassy glaze which tapers into gradients of colour called flashing. Since the soda fuses to the surfaces of the work in this way, it blurs the line between pot and glaze/surface; they become one. The introduction of this soda vapour into the kiln’s atmosphere which then has a dramatic effect on the pots makes this process, much like wood-firing, an atmospheric firing process.
