Power Turquoise Returns!  I  April 17

Power Turquoise

It’s deep, dramatic and it’s back in stock: It’s Power Turquoise. A studio favorite, we have received a small shipment of this hard-to-get glaze (shown above on Standard 182G clay with textured surface inside and out). While supplies last–which, typically, isn’t long!. $10.30 per pint

Power Turquoise is Back!

While supplies last! Power Turquoise glides on beautifully and, so far, has looked amazing on every clay body we’ve tried. Above it’s shown on Highwater Red Stone, overlayered with White and Goldenrod Shino. $10.30 per pint.

The Best Trimming Tool. Ever.  I  January 19, 2017

DPT-120_2

With its sharply angled, triangular trimming blade, this Dolan trimming tool is the studio pick for fast and clean feet on pots. The long side edges make quick work of outside surfaces, too.

Meet the DPT-120. If you haven’t tried it yet, it’s strongly recommended. $13.50
