A few months ago I posted the throwing and trimming of these large angular bowls with absurdly tall, pedestal-like feet. Well, these vessels have now been glazed and reduction fired and this video shows that entire process, from fettling smooth poorly applied glaze, to loading them into my Rohde gas kiln and finally reduction firing them to 1290ºC. Phew.

I'm always so nervous when firing larger works and the results were surprising... and thankfully, these may be two of my favourite pots in a LONG TIME.

I hope you enjoy the video and thanks so much for taking your precious time to watch!
