Description
These tankards were made in one of my porcelain clay bodies. The clay is wedged by foot, before resting until it can be worked on the potters’ wheel. I save the most diverse and extreme zones in the kiln for work made in these clays. They can stand up to the decorative destruction of the most turbulent, soda rich parts that many clays struggle to handle. Wearing this process like a badge of honour, they emerge from the kiln with rich, exciting surfaces: layered, eroded, built back up again as the soda bonds with the clay body over several hours.
Such is the nature of the most extreme parts of the kiln, much work is required to treat and dress these pots post firing.

Functional, dishwasher safe, though I recommend with all of my work it is best to take your time, hand wash, and treasure them.
