Gene Timpany Sagger Fired, Hands-On Workshop, September 29th, 10:00am - 4:00pm
Join us at the Donn Zver School of Pottery and take your pottery skills to the next level!
Gene Timpany Sagger Fired
Saggar Firing was first used by the Chinese to keep wood ash off of their beautiful celadon glazed pottery when firing with a wood burning kiln. Now we use these same saggars in reverse, in that the pottery is placed inside the saggars containing combustible materials to color its surface. The results of each firing are different, and like raku, there are no two pieces of saggar pottery alike.
This workshop will be a firing only hands on experience. Each participant can expect to fire 2 – 3 pots. Bisqued pots required to be made prior to the workshop. More details when you register.
Ensure that when you are making your pieces that you use a smooth clay, not raku clay.
We recommend:
SIO-2® PRAI White Stoneware Clay with Impalpable Grog, 27.6 lb
Date: Sunday September 29th, 10 am to 4 pm at the Donn Zver School of Pottery
Prerequisite: Students with at least 3 sessions of classes or Intermediate or Advanced level experience
