Hello, Does anyone have any findings or historical data on the first known potter to expose the seam in a slab built cup/vessel? This is what I do, but someone recently accused me of copying a contemporary potter with the seam. Although I had seen it before I adopted it, I didn’t set out to copy. A seam is a seam. I’ve been researching but can’t find any data. Thank you in advance.

Thank you Pete!

Thank you! I was afraid of this It’s not what I wanted to hear, but good to know. I like your suggestion to dehydrate.

Is it possible to attach a small dry handle to a wet casted cup? I’d think yes, but wonder if anyone does their production this way. Thanks for sharing your wisdom

Thank you so much for this info Callie!

Thanks Mark. I found the Duncan one. How would you suggest I make it a color if I apply it over a clear glaze? Thank you!

Hello!! Does anyone know a pearlescent glaze? Or luster if glaze does not exist?. I’d love to make something like the picture. I know there are commercial lusters available but I’ prefer to make my own. It needs to be food safe. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated. Thank you!
