[QUOTE="Rastella, post: 332316, member: 6722"]Good morning, everyone! I need help with the glaze/painting applications on this piece. 1. You can see all of those little imperfections that look like dings? Well, they are smooth - as though they were done when the glaze was hot. So possibly made when it was in the kiln? If so, how? 2. I'm confused about the application process. Was there an overall ivory color "slip" (not sure if right term) before the green? If so, what is that called? 3. Then I'm assuming that the green paint was put on and then the glaze, is that correct? 4. What part of the process caused the iridescent sheen? The kiln? The paint? The glaze? If it was a fire kiln, I know that was a long process. The vessel seems to indicate that it was because of the dings on the glaze and the overall green being darker in some areas than others and the look of the bottom. Thank you for any thoughts and comments you can share with me. Have a great day![/QUOTE]
