This guide first sketches the history of ash glazes. It then discusses the practicalities of collecting and testing wood ashes, how to make them into glazes and then use them to glaze your pots. It also looks at a group of international artists who use ash glazes on their work.
Potters, young and old, will delight in the updates, and our continuing experiments and revelations will be fitting tributes to all that Phil and Hajeong have contributed to our field.
