Dessert Plates

 

A quick look at some new plates I am working on. They are more of a sandwich/dessert plate which seems to be the size I use the most.  Sadly, way too much for desserts eaten instead of breakfast it’s when I crave sweets the most. It must be something to do with that is when I consume the most coffee.  I intend to make the corresponding dinner plates as well to make up for my poor breakfast habits.

I am also testing glazes; I need a cone 6 satin glaze that stays translucent. If you have any ideas let me know. I have few new glazing and surface treatment ideas floating around in my head that I want to visit

    Leah Leitson’s chun clear is a good, satin/gloss, translucent glaze:
    38%: Feldspar (soda or potash works)
    14: Whiting
    12: Zinc oxide
    6: Ball clay
    30: Silica
