functional: high-fired purposeful porcelain

porcelain in process

Using a high-fire English porcelain clay body from Tucker's Pottery Supply (in Richmond Hill, ON), my work is wheel-thrown and finished with a distinct, minimalist approach, in an indirect ode to the English studio pottery movement of the early to mid-20th Century.

All of the work is biscuit (bisque)-fired to 980*C and glaze-fired in an electric kiln (oxidation environment) to 1260*C (Cone 9), using lead-free glazes, fired to their maturing temperature for food safety.
