Thai Noodle Bowls


Every Art Kitchen needs tableware. These bowls are wheel thrown domestic porcelain. I am new to working with porcelain, it is more like cream cheese than stoneware clay. This shape of bowl was very pleasing to make and they have a nice deep foot. I love them for noodle dishes and Thai salads.

The glaze on the inside is Wert Trap Shino over Oatmeal and the outside is Michael Davis Shino over VC Celadon, with a little VC Celadon on the rim.

The whole combination makes the MD Shino colorize the cold wax brush strokes to orange on the outside. The VC celadon slides down inside and makes a crackle green celadon in the base possibly because of the WT Shino on the inside. The black is from the MD Shino/VC Celadon combination.
