Shino and Stove Ash Mug - Gas-fired
Wheel-thrown mug, glazed in layers of shino and dusted with wood ash from my studio stove.
This piece is fired in a gas kiln, in a reduction atmosphere. By controlling the amount of oxygen the kiln receives, unique and highly varied results can be achieved, resulting in distinctive colours and textures and speckles. Ash melts at high temperatures and can create unique textures and colours.
However these cups can be used for tea, coffee, or cold drinks. Simply hold the cup by the rim and base ring for boiling hot drinks.
This listing is for one cup only, although more may be available.
Stoneware-fired, dishwasher and microwave safe, although hand-washing recommended.
