Lady Alyx Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 Hey Salty...seems your on your way with pottery demands...Great! I love working with clay as well, but never mastered the wheel. One day will try again. I love to work freehand style. Most of what's needed seems always to be at least foodwares. Goblets, krugs/steins, bottles, dishes, pickle jars etc, candlesticks and lanterns. I love the glazes that melt from a color and bleed a metalic sheen around edges of the color. When you make the onion bottles please post!!!!! ~~~~Sailing Westward Bound~~~~ Lady Alyx
Salty Posted April 26, 2007 Author Posted April 26, 2007 aye more ware posted in plunder from the potter.
