Beginner's Glazing And Firing Question


Recommended Posts

Any reason, you bisque fired it so high?  Generally people only bisque to 06-04.  It's meant to make the clay strong enough to handle, and burn out any organics, that may cause issues, during the glazing.  

 

Annnnnyway, yes you can glaze the sculpture.  As rayaldridge said, it will be difficult to apply the glaze, as the clay is vitrified.  Bisqueware is porous, and really sucks in the glaze.  Vitrified clay, does not.  

 

As was suggested, heat your wares first, which does help, when applying glaze to vitrified. wares.

 

Best of luck.
