Product Description
Macro-crystalline glazes present one of the most difficult challenges a potter can face. Ever since they first appeared in Europe in the 1850s, these spectacular and beautiful glazes have fascinated potters and collectors. In this manual, Peter Ilsley reveals his own researches and techniques in practical detail, and 13 other potters tell how they have met the challenge of crystals. With informative text and more than 150 colour pictures of crystal pots, old and new, the book seeks to instruct potters and provide a valuable reference for collectors.

Peter Ilsley has spent alot of time figuring out crystalline glazes, and in his book he explains plainly and simply, the intricacies of this particular artform. Clay bodies, glaze recipes, and firing techniques are closely guarded secrets for lesser artists: this is an honest attempt to pass on valuable information.

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
We have been researching Crystalline Glazes in our ceramics class and found this informative, beautiful publication. After studying the stunning photographs and noticing the detailed glaze formulas and firing schedules, it is a must have. Our teacher wanted it for his personal library. He is a well-known Pacific Northwest potter.
