chezzi64 got a reaction from Pyewackette for a gallery image, Translucency of Parian
I have carved some floral designs onto some of my parian vases. I think they would make lovely candle holders or lamp shades. New direction possible.

chezzi64 got a reaction from Tunie for a gallery image, Parian Vase
This is a vase I made out of Parian Porcelain.It is slip-cast then carefully finished. It is fired to 1200 C with a 45 minute soak, this vitrifies the clay body so that no glaze is needed. I then polish the vessel, resulting in a beautifully smooth, translucent vase.

chezzi64 reacted to Celia UK for a gallery image, Small dish with homemade tissue transfers
After reading CAD article about making your own transfers, I tried this using a rubber stamp with stain & frit 50:50 mix. Stamped on to tissue paper, applied to leather hard clay. Bisqued to 1000oC. Dipped in transparent glaze & fired to 1100oC in an electric kiln.

chezzi64 reacted to Celia UK for a gallery image, Cut bowls with texture slabs
Thrown bowls, cut at right angles to the rim. Thin slabs textured with bark, stamps, shells etc. - pieces attached to back part with front cut edge eased forwards to emphasise the contrast between the organic and engineered. Oxide washes applied at dry greenware stage, fixed in the bisqued firing. 3 back pieces were dipped in transparent glaze, front one dipped in tin white (to cover a repair that fired a different colour!). Fired to 1100oC in electric kiln.
