Hi guys,
I am fairly new to ceramics and to this community. I wanted to ask if anyone had experiences/knowledge around sprinkling iron filings on pots with wet surfaces - right after glazing. Is it food safe? I know that there are glazes with high iron content but wanted to achieve a uneven effect with bigger speckles. This idea came about while watching and reading about a father and son potters from K. H. Wurtz. Here's a link of the video:
On their website under their bio they mention the use of iron filings sprinkled on pots too.
Any information about temperature, type of glazes, type of clay and their effects would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Jason
