I tried making kurinuki pots and they were pretty good but glazing day came around and I glazed them with everything else without checking if kurinuki gets glazed because I feel like it shouldn’t haha

Anyways, I really like them even though there is too much oxide because patience isn’t my forte. It wasn’t dry enough so i couldn’t wipe it off well enough.

A photo of three hand built ceramic pots that look black with some white patches. One is in the center and front and the other two are in the background. They look rough as I tried to make kurinuki pots which are carved out of a chunk of clay. The pots are sitting on a wooden table stained with paint. Light source is on the left.
a photo of a kurinuki shot glass. it has a faceted surface in white glaze and black oxide that makes a line pattern here and there. It also sits on the mentioned wooden table and casts a shadow to the right.
a closeup image of one of the bigger kurinuki pots showing the rough texture with little holes in it.
a closeup of the kurinuki pot showing the unevem, rough rim, that looks burnt because of the dark oxide against white glaze.

I’ll be done with this soon, I promise haha.

More ceramics. These are pinch pots, very small, a bit like shot glasses and they are like this because this is the best I can do for now. I am yet to figure out what to use them for. For now they are stored safely in a box because of Pocket the kitten.

Once again white clay, transparent glaze and the beloved oxide pencil.

a group photo of 6 pinch pots made out of whitr clay, decorated with oxide pencil drawings and coated with transparent glaze. The drawings consist of two crows fighting in flight, a person standing looking towards a house in the distance with a moon in the sky and cast shadows. Next there’s a few pots with vast fieds on them that have wind turbines and electricity poles. The last one has a person walking on top of some footsteps and we don’t know which are theirs and which where already there. The pots sit on top of a wooden table with stains on it from ink and paint.
a closeup photo of the pot with the person walking on footsteps, hunched over from fatigue caused by circling the pot for eternity.
close up of the pot with a person standing in moonlight, or is it sunshine? looking towards a house in the distance. there’s a cast shadow and footsteps.
my favorite and smallest of the pinch pots with two crows fighting in mid air. These are all rough drawings as oxide pencil leaves a pretty rough mark.
