Plates 12"x10"

Slip Cast Plates. Cast with laguna 550 white porcelain mix. Dried, added to 40% water by weight, added Darvan#7 until SPG was 1.75. This clay body throws and casts beautifully, it's white as hell in redux and ox and translucent where thin.

Lunch Plates

Medium sized polygon shaped plates. Really ideal for a sandwich and chips!

Polygon Bowls Green

Polygon Bowls Blue

Foot Detail, Polygon Bowls

Dinnerware Setting

Everything is based off of a 7 sided polygon.

Blue and White Nepheline Crystal Trays

These trays are like 14" long and 6" wide. I used a brush to draw the designs in a cobalt pigment mix. The recipe is something like Cobalt 50, Red iron 10, Nickel 10, Epk 30, ball milled for 24 hours.

5" Small Dishes

Pinstripes with crazy glaze curl

Fired 3 times. All that yummy blue glaze pooled at the bottom. Pretty sweet.

4" Sauce Dishes

Standard Rib Stripes

Like the proportion of the cup and the handle, the subtle lines do it for me too.

Started making these over the summer for the farmers market. By far and above my most popular item at that venue. They look pretty amazing with food in them.
