This little bowl got lots of "aaaahs" but it has a problem that isn't at first noticeable.

No, it isn't that Ms. Mousie will continueally get away from the kitty.

I fed my own kitty in this bowl, a mixture of wet and dry food with water, for 2 days.

And now washed it to find she was able to lick off the glaze.
Several of my pots with Mexico glaze have had this "rub off" effect of the metalic grey finish. But this has me worried about whether or not it's food safe. Kitty sure won't be eating out of it any more.
Comments, anyone who knows what this means?

Here are some pics of older pots, some having been redone. The celadon glaze has been refired, and the end results are pretty nice, I think.

A fuit bowl, or colander, which I've enjoyed having around for a while.

I like comparing the sizes of things. The vase on the right is one I'm very attached to, with a combination glaze that's hard to get.

Here's a comparison of the older (right) vase with the difficult to get glaze, and the newer vase with the studio celadon. I've only made one other with the glaze combination, which I sold last year. I've tried several times this year to get that combination glaze to work, and haven't been successful yet. The other results are pretty nice, but not the excitment I get with this version. But then, not every day can be exciting, can it?
