Wad Marks

The "flash patterns" on the bottom of this vessel,
are a result of “Wads”
used prevent the pot from fusing to the kiln shelf.

 The choice of  wadding,
their shape and the amount used,
are important aesthetic considerations for the potter.

The pattern created from flames engulfing the wads,
 are sometimes referred to as
comet trails. 

This piece has particularly dramatic "Comet Trails"
