109. Kiln Opening 66 | Glaze Tests, Giant Mug & Memorial Kitten | Far Forest Ceramics

Come with me for a kiln opening in Bella, my smaller kiln — but this firing holds some big emotions and beautiful tests. Inside this kiln are two very special pieces: 🐾 A sentimental memorial kitten sculpture, made with love for my Dad’s grave — simple, heartfelt, and deeply personal. ☕ A super-sized striped mug for my son in Canada, thrown from 1.1kg of flecked stoneware clay and holding 605ml / 20.5 fl oz. He loves colour, so I’ve gone bold and playful with the glaze choices — fingers crossed I’ve hit the brief! I’m also testing out glaze combinations on flecked stoneware clay, aiming to find the perfect finishes for a commissioned dinnerware set — something that works well across both horizontal and vertical surfaces. To help, I’ve made both vertical and horizontal test tiles using combinations like Running Hot Chowder and a few exciting new pairings. ✨ Bonus: I’ve included pre-fired glaze application photos in this video too — so you can see exactly how the glaze looked before going into the kiln, and how it transformed through the fire. A great side-by-side for fellow potters and glaze geeks! 📌 What’s inside: A heartfelt memorial kitten for my Dad A colourful giant mug reveal Pre-fired glaze application shots Glaze test results on flecked clay (horizontal + vertical tiles) Thoughts on next steps in my glaze journey 🧪 I’ll be posting all the glaze test tiles in more detail on my digital glaze filing cabinet on Instagram over the coming days: 👉   / farforestceramicsglazetests   Thanks for being here — I hope this video offers a little colour, curiosity, and quiet meaning from the clay bench 💛 #KilnOpening #PotteryVlog #GlazeApplication #BeforeAndAfterFiring #FleckedStoneware #RunningHotChowder #SuperSizedMug #MemorialCeramics #CeramicSculpture #SentimentalCeramics #TestTiles #CeramicGlazeTests #FarForestCeramics #PotteryForMySon #UKPotter #PotteryStudioLife #ClayCommunity 💡 Make sure you don't miss a new video by subscribing - its free!
