New and old

I have been meaning to start a blog to catalog (mostly for my own benefit but if it helps anyone else that's awesome too) all of the awesome websites and blogs out there right now. I keep finding these awesome sites and losing them because I have to no way to organize them.  So here it is the archive where all of my favorite things live.

I came across this design on a plate a day's blog. What an awesome use of glaze to create boundaries. I'm thinking of using my new gold glaze to do something similar. The lines look like mishima but maybe i will do slip trailed dots for mine. I just love the tarnished silver sheen of the lip, and the way the looseness of the glaze contrasts the form and other decorations on this plate.

This plate was made for Handmade for Japan by Yasuko Ozeki.
