I should put my hands on a butter's block size of porcelain to try my hand on this or maybe wait and see if you decided to do commissions 😅. That metallic manganese glaze is really cool, but I like how it looks on the 2nd from the right, between the red and light yellow 14:44 , is that applied thicker or a complete different glaze?

Lovely video, really helped me make my own makers mark. Thank you. I have seen another video suggesting that they should only be bisque fired so they don't clog up when you use them. But you fire fully? Does this make a difference to the mark in the end. Excellent videos you produce. Thanks.
@ruthbosveld449

I wondered the same thing. Is a bisque firing enough?
@floriangadsby
Жыл бұрын
Thanks Sarah! Well, if pressed against properly leather hard clay I can't see how they'd clog really, mine never do. I simply them before fully fired as I can glaze them, which is a nice treat, and the material itself is much stronger. If you stamp soft clay then yes, fully fired clay will stick a bit more but I never run into that issue.

Out of curiosity, why are the marks recessed and not extended outwards? And can you make them protruding outwards? I would think the dryer the surface of the clay the less the mark would make and the easier it would be to damage the pot when pressing in. With an an extended mark then just the letter and a border would be stamped into the clay and seems it would be easier to make the mark? I'm a beginner so maybe I lack the awareness of experience. Your thoughts?

I saw another video of yours where you said this makers mark was a rune. Dont know if you know this......but that specific rune is Ansus. It's an A. Not an F. F is Fehu. The lines go up, not down. So youre signing your pottery with a runic A.

Upon completion of the video that bit dos sound weird - in the past I've made a set of marks for some friends - as gifts, that were well received and are used, I suppose it's a nice gesture but you're totally right! It goes against the whole point I was trying to get across. Perhaps it's more of a novelty and there's always going to be people who don't create their own stamps.

You could try using simply a coarse stoneware clay body. You just have to make sure it's TOTALLY dry before firing it and take the beginning of your firing slowly, more like a bisque firing perhaps.

The manganese crystal was really interesting and gave me an idea for a bismuth glaze. I'm quite new to pottery (I have no tools, nor access to a kiln but I have practice with refining clay I've dug up myself) and I'm unfamiliar with the chemistry of glazes. I know that bismuth has a rather low melting point but without doing research I'm not sure what components are commonly found in glazes and therefore unsure of any potential reactions bismuth might have when fired.

If you mix vermiculite into a bit of moist stoneware clay, then it can be used to roll a coil with in order to chuck up heatwork cones inside of a kiln and fire rapidly, like single fire without exploding.

For the support for the stamps, I wonder... what could be a good replacement for the 50% kaolin clay for the wadding mixture? Would any other clay work? I don't use any materials that have animal-derived ingredients (since kaolin contains bone ash is not an option for me). Answering the last question: the manganese glaze is fascinating, and the clear yellow is also beautiful but I actually do like the black one too. Thank you so much for showing and explaining things in so much detail. Great video!
@floriangadsby

Bone china contains bone ash but most kaolins/china clays don't, so you should be fine as long as you find the right material. Alternatively, you could use a smooth stoneware too, it all just needs to be very dry before putting it in the glaze firing. Thanks for watching! And good luck making your own :)
