Tenmoku glaze over a very chunky high iron clay from Nonbok in central Laos. The glaze is quite simple (66 feldspar/16 clay/16 whiting/ 8 iron oxide) but the high iron content of the clay gives it a depth that makes it one of my current favorites. Traditionally the clay is fired to around cone 6 to produce vitreous unglazed utilitarian wares. Firing hotter pushes the clay to its limits but creates a lot of interesting interaction with the glaze.
