Thank You !
This piece was the first. Have tried to replicate that delicate curve. Even made a template. Nothing has equaled this original.
The glaze is easy to replicate. 4 glazes on the outside.

Thank you all for your kind words. Joseph, as you know, it takes time to sort out the glazes and how to apply each one.
Pete's Seafoam is a glaze recipe created by Pete Pinnell.

Hey JohnnyK, Around the rim, where the glaze is lighter, is Strontium Crystal Magic Cool sprayed on. Then Pete's Seafoam is sprayed over the whole piece. The SCMC makes Pete's Seafoam go turquoise. Depending on thickness of Pete's Seafoam, on non-SCMC areas, will result in the varied amount of splotches. The army green color is where Pete's Seafoam is thinner.
Thank you

Thank You 1515art.

Thank You Roberta12 and Denice. These are fun to make. 2 pounds of clay.

Thank you, JohnnyK, yes it is. Glazed the platter then set the bowl on it to glaze fire. I'm thinking to get a better seal would be to put a little glaze on the bottom of the bowl also. There is 1 spot between bowl and platter where you can almost put a fingernail into.

Yes OldLady, once you get the glaze thickness dialed in, which took me a long time, it all goes pretty easy and consistent.

OldLady, Thank You. No handle on the other one. Satin Matte Green - I thought it was a Tony Hansen base but it is not. Not sure where I found this glaze. Over Strontium Crystal Matte Cool. The rim is SH Copper Ash. The foot is Hsin Matte Black.

A sugar, dry creamer, wet creamer and serving tray.

Chilly, did you make this from the plans in one of the ceramic arts workbooks?

The customer wanted a very plain plate. Customer also wanted a tan with little to no rust breaking. It took well over 100 test tiles to develop. Then numerous plate firings to get the glaze application thickness just right.
This glaze was developed by mixing a clear at 60% and a matte at 40%. The color was developed by adding 2% rutile, 2% tin oxide and 1.6% RIO.
The glaze has some visual movement. This glaze is food safe with no cutlery marking. Cutlery dragged across the glaze has little to no sound. The glaze does not physically move when fired - stays where you put it.
