Controlled Reduced Cooling 6 |
Carol Rosser Diameter 34 cm Fired upside down, supported by sea shells. Blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon) and Forest Red Gum (Eucalyptus tereticornis) ash deposits over a dry nepheline syenite glaze. |
The series of
images on this
page are of pots we have produced using the controlled reduced cooling
procedure. We are not totally certain that the cooling procedure is
essential to their production, but are reluctant to do a firing without
controlled cooling just in case it is necessary.

Blackwood ash
effects are
predominant on this pot, although it was subjected to Forest Red Gum
ash early in the firing. The shells supported a shielding inverted
bowl. The near-black edge effect is clearly visible |

A shallow bowl from
one of
the bowl stacks. There is no slip applied to this pot, which
was
made from a clay body whose main constituent is Skardon River kaolin
from near Weipa on the gulf of Carpentaria. The dark wad clay marks are
made from iron bearing kaolin found on our own property. |

Again, an inverted
shielding bowl has been used to cut back the ash deposit on the top of
this lidded jar. |
