madara teapot

madara teapot

h 12,5cm

this piece is made from a dark stoneware clay
with iron ore and quartz inclusions.
my madara glaze contains only feldspar, reed ash
and wood ash.
this particular pot was fired in a lightly reducing
atmosphere, so the outside of the pot is reduced
and the glaze colour ranges from green to white,
but the reduction did not reach the inside of the pot,
resulting in a bluish glaze colour there
