New Fruit Bowl

 Sorry about the shadows... I just snapped this pic on the kitchen bench...

I am quite pleased with how this bowl turned out...

The colours were stamped underglazes but on top of the white glaze...

so I now have a new fruit bowl..

I spent the afternoon decorating these bottles I threw last week




It could be a few weeks before these are glazed as I am planning on starting on teapots in my next throwing session.

I have tested glazing over terrasiggulata with one of these 'rosemary planters' from the Anzac exhibition: 

Just the one at this stage but if it works they will become wine bottle holders.  

Thanks for dropping by my blog...

your bowl is super, I didn't know you could put underglaze over glaze hum

Anna said...

thanks Linda. Yes, only on some glazes. This white is a semi matt and so its similar to majolica but at the high temperature of stoneware. Majolica is usually at earthenware temperatures.

Cute fruit bowl, and I like the stamped fern leaf.... will be interesting to see how it fires up :-)

Hi Dawn
the fruit bowl is just the right size - the fern leaf is a cut out of a commercial tissue print... hope to be glazing them tomorrow but they might have to sit until the teapots are further along.. thanks for dropping by..
