Greenish mug with texture and metallic highlights.



I made this on my basement wheel and glazed it with Seaweed (color) over Iron Lustre. The bumps are made from tk-1 texturizer. I fired this in my kiln to cone 5 but I had some pinhole bubbles in the glaze... So I had my pottery teacher fire it to cone 6 in our classroom kiln. The shiny quality of the glaze was mellowed in to a satin finish that I really like.

I gave this to my friend Tracy because:
a: She's awesome.
b. She turned me on to Weeds and then lent me all the seasons on DVD.

Protip: get to know tracy.
