Wad Marks

Sodium ( salt glazing), and fly ash ( wood firing), create glaze on the pots, and on kiln shelves where the pots sit.. Wadding prevents pots, in a wood firing and salt glazing, from fusing to the kiln shelves. 
 The size, shape and materials used for wadding,
are important aesthetic considerations for the potter.  In addition to preventing pots from fusing to shelves, wadding acts as a color resist and leaves flame flashing patterns.
