Strange Horizontal Break All Around Refired Pot


Recommended Posts

This pot was made with white mid-range stone ware:  Laguna #65.  It was fired once, but some of the glaze crawled, so it was reglazed and fired 

again.  There was a clean horizontal break all the way around.  The pot was slab constructed and the walls are convex. 

Does anyone know what might cause this?

I wouldn’t over think it. Refires are hard on pots as virtually all fluxed reactions have already occurred in the first firing, except for the new applied glaze of course. My expectations for refires are low and if I can downfire then my chances of survival are better in my experience.
