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.
