My work is made with the intention that it be used, loved and enjoyed in the home.\u003cbr\u003eEach piece is thrown on the wheel in a stoneware clay, trimmed and any handles or additions attached. \u003cbr\u003eThe pots are initially bisque fired to 1000°C, whereafter they are glazed and fired to 1260-1280°C in either oxidation or reduction (electric or gas).\u003cbr\u003eThese high temperatures mean that the finished pots are impervious to water and are oven, microwave and dishwasher safe (though hand washing is preferable).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy mixing my own glazes, I can control the materials I use and substitute for “self sourced” ones where possible. I avoid using metal oxides other than iron as colourants, as these can be some of the most intensive to extract and process.\u003cbr\u003eAll my waste clay is recycled.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"thebristolartisan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57488117825911,"sku":"LT3","price":33.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/3058\/5843\/files\/6779FE4B-8548-4822-87D8-953CD4437F26.jpg?v=1790240998","url":"https:\/\/www.thebristolartisan.live\/products\/dark-brown-gold-dolomite-glaze-tea-cup-by-lucy-turner","provider":"THE BRISTOL ARTISAN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
