Our hottest new book!

Low-firing and Burnishing

From the beginning of ceramics 10,000 years ago until today, potters have used low-firing very effectively — adding slips and burnishing pieces to create finishes not possible with any other firing method. Whether using an old garbage can, a pit in the ground, or a bonfire, anyone with an outdoor space can low-fire. Low-firing and Burnishing provides step-by-step practical information focusing on various approaches to low firing and methods for creating natural finishes.
