JUNE 10 FIRING 1
These are all new glazes worked on for many months. So far over 300 tests for just a beginning. A word first about Oilspot.
Oilspot glazes are known in Japan as Yuteki Tenmoku. There are many glazes in the Tenmoku (Temmoku) family that run from shiny black breaking to rust red; to Hare's Fur, to Yuteki Oilspot, to Partridge Feathers. Oilspot was started in China and it is thought to have gotten to Japan in the Muromachi period (1338-1573) according to Japan Times. The glaze has been valued for centuries by masters of the tea ceremony. It is said that dedicated potters of the Song Dynasty (12th and 13th centuries) made oilspot for the emperors and intellectuals. I will be pursuing this elusive glaze for some time to come. These photos do not do these pots justice; I am not a photographer, I am a potter. If you have any questions, please email or call me. Prices are full retail and as usual, I offer free shipping within the United States.

All dimensions are height and width in inches, and all pots are made of "Turner Porcelain"
