Throwing a Stoneware Vase with Iron Oxide Spangles — Narrated

In this week’s video I’m throwing and trimming a simple angular vase form, into the clay of which I mix iron oxide spangles, which should hopefully give me quite a pleasing result, like shown on an example in the video. I can’t wait to see the finished, fired vessel! As always, if you have any further questions, please do ask down in the comments below and I’ll do my best to respond!

That you won’t get the same results as I do if you’re firing in oxidation. The reduction firing really helps with this process. ____
