Book Description
This new handbook reflects the growing interest in pit firing and
related techniques. The articles included here were carefully selected
to illustrate the wide range of approaches to barrel, pit, and saggar
firing. Works ranging from wheel-thrown and coil-built pots to complex
sculpture are tied together by a similarity in the firing process.
Standard versions of these firing techniques as well as innovative
variations are discussed.
Artists, teachers, students, and lovers of pottery will all find inspiration and education from these pages.
Color images throughout.
