An essential guide to low firing and producing natural finishes
without using glazes. This book explores the techniques of firing
and finishing at low temperature without using glazes or electric
kilns. Many ancient cultures and contemporary potters use methods
of low firing, adding slips and burnishing pieces to create a more
natural finish. As these techniques can be achieved without a kiln,
for example using old dustbins, pits dug out of the earth or
bonfires, it means that providing you have some outdoor space, the
process can be done on a low budget. With many illustrations of
beautiful work by contemporary makers for inspiration, this
step-by-step guide to low firing and natural finishes is suitable
for potters of all levels, including beginners. Get started in no
time with practical approaches to burnishing, terra sigillata,
smoke-firing, pit-firing, saggar firing and raku techniques.
