This round Jar was first glazed with a thin black Tenmoku glaze then fired in my Kansas anagama for 3 days. In the kiln, the piece was laid on its side on three large scalloped shells. After firing, the shells crumble away leaving permanent "scars" on the surface of the Piece. The intense heat and heavy natural ash buildup created streams of fluid glass which flowed around the piece culminating in a dark black drip centered between the shells.
