Glaze Chemistry
Notes on glaze formulation, testing, and results. A living reference from the studio.
Tenmoku
Iron-saturate glaze producing deep brown-black with amber highlights where thin. A cornerstone of high-fire reduction work.
Celadon
Iron in reduction producing jade greens and blue-greens. The classic glaze of Song dynasty ceramics, prized for depth and clarity.
Ash Glazes
Wood and plant ash as flux. Unpredictable, natural surfaces with high variation. Each firing is unique depending on the ash source.
