Shino
The color of Shino ranges from cream to dark red. Shino glazes
often exhibit crazing lines and may appear nearly transparent. This
is the result of its high sodium content, usually from the addition
of soda ash. These fracture lines, also called “crazing” are formed
when the glaze cools.

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
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 reveals flame flashing patterns |
