For the External Design project at college I decided to create a 2 part vase with surface texture on inspired by the Martin Brothers (the final piece had to be inspired by a collection in the Plymouth Museum). I threw the two pieces on the wheel then joined them the next day and creating a surface on the pot using a serrated metal kidney to scratch on to it. Once it was bisque fired I glazed the inside clear using a stoneware glaze and then I painted the outside with cobalt oxide and then using a sponge and water wiping off the excess. Then getting fired to 1260 degrees celcius.

Using a serrated metal kidney to create a surface texture
It has been bisque fired and has cobalt oxide on to pick up the detail of the texture.
Finished piece with clear glaze on the inside and the cobalt oxide on the outside.
