I threw this teapot set on my kickwheel. After throwing and trimming all of the pieces, I added 4 little feet to each mug and the teapot. I pulled 3 handles and attached them to each piece. I then threw the spout and lid for the teapot. The spout was attached and a swirl carved into the top of the lid. The whole set was then dried and bisque fired.
After the first firing, I glazed each of the mugs with a light tan glaze. I overlapped the tan with a dark red and white. The results are very cool. The red at the top turned a bit brown and the white over top gave all of the pieces a textured flowing cap.
The teapot was glazed in the same colors, the inside of the teapot is glazed with a dark red with gold flows.

I threw this mug on my kickwheel. After trimming the mug I added a foot ring to the bottom and a handle to the side.The mug was then bisque fired.After the first firing, I glazed the mug with 2 glazes. The first is a mossy green with light and dark blue crystals and the second glaze is a creamy turquiose glaze. The 2 glazes mixed together are AWESOME!!FOODSAFE/MICROWAVE SAFE
