This mug is part of Andy's Decorative Collection which marks a major breakthrough. Never before has the glaze been so controlled that it wouldn’t simply flow downward and cover the area below it. Design elements like the areas of brown carved porcelain below the glaze were thought impossible. Andy was able to refine the recipes and processes so that the glaze could be controlled and he unlocked new creative options. He has shared his secrets at workshops, his online tutorials and lectured at NCECA so that the rest of the community can explore this new creative frontier.
Crystalline glazed pottery is technically and aesthetically the cutting edge of Ceramic Art. Nowhere else can you find such an intense combination of organic beauty mixed with scientific process. To make these pieces requires the highest level of artistry not only in making fine porcelain forms but also in mastering the chemistry of the materials so that the crystals naturally grow in the firing. It is a perilous process that is rare in the ceramics world. ~ Andy Boswell
