Adorable little porcelain pot I made for the glaze kiln, ended up in the wood kiln with the new matte blue glaze, which showed a totally different face than it does in the gas. A revelation.

Wood firing is my favorite thing and I’ve been doing more of it this year. I make pots out of stoneware, my friend Mark Rowntree and I have a new clay body we mix ourselves, and the pots go in the kiln largely unglazed. There’s Mark’s little kiln in Philmont, which fires in just over two days, and then every year we go fire Joy Brown’s big anagama in Connecticut with all our other friends. The pots from this kiln are my favorite, the longer I look at them the better I like them. They’re a little more expensive, but oh so worth it.
