Set of Bottles with Black Terra Sig and Poured White Crackle Raku


With this set, I was successful in throwing forms that were related, and that belonged together as a set. The white crackle is a result of raku firing, where the pot is removed from the kiln, and the glaze cracks because of thermal shock. I don't like the pattern of the white crackle glaze, but I do love the contrast between the black and white. If the lines had been part of a regular pattern, perhaps the bottle set would have worked better as a combination of line and form.
