M62 River's Mug

River's Mug            This beautiful Medium Speckled Clay Mug is made by me and fired to over 2,200 degrees in my oxidation kiln. I have chosen a Light Blue Glaze that actually breaks over the Mugs hand tooled edges revealing the Toasty Brown Clay underneath.  I didn't want to stop there so I applied a Flux Glaze to the rim of the mug which "encourages" the Blue Glaze to run.  I sure got my wish as the glaze ran down the mug like water rushing over a riverbed.  It was so very pleasing to me when I opened my kiln to see how the flux had manipulated the glaze.   I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I have enjoyed  making it.   This Mug holds about 16 oz of liquid and measures 4 inches wide (not counting the handle).                                                                                                 #M62
