Tenmoku pieces

Another set of stoneware thrown pieces with a base glaze of tenmoku.

A vase made with Chinese Chun that produces a pleasant light blue colour.

A rice husk chun bowl showing how the glaze runs on the inside surface.

A close up of the way rice husk chun creates a light and dark pattern as it runs over the slippery tenmoku glaze underneath.

Tenmoku vase

I like the random, uncontrollable but undeniably beautiful effect produced when chun glazes are added over tenmoku on stoneware pieces. These two vases have been made with Rice Husk chun which produces white/pale yellow waves and runs.

A simple vase.

A vase with a more pronounced lip and a bare section of unglazed clay at the base.
