Mugs Mugs Mugs Fresh from the Kiln


Here are some mugs that I threw on the wheel recently. The first three from the left to right, right now, hold 16 oz. The next two hold 12 oz, and the one on the very right hand end holds 8 oz.

Isn't it neat the way the short rounded shape of one mug holds the same amount as a taller, more slender one?

They will shrink in the glaze firing, but I don't think they will lose more than 2 oz. I'm predicting maybe an ounce. Measuring is certainly something I should have thought of doing earlier. I'm finding it very interesting.

I very much appreciate my customers who ask me to try different things that I never would have thought of without their input.
