Unexpected Results using Silver & Brass Fish Hooks

Описание: This week's video is another conclusion, this time it's the silver and the fish hooks you may have seen me wedge into some clay lately, to throw and trim some bowls with. This time we're catching up with the process, beginning with bisque firing the pieces, waxing their foot-rings, glazing them and finally gas reduction firing them to cone ten. The results are both startling and well, I'll let you be the judge.

Thanks for sending me the metals, Alex! You can find his details below:
