*The Journey of Ceramic Bowl /Mug *
Ceramic work is typically fired twice: It is Bisque fired and then Glaze fired
I begins by wedging the clay to make sure it doesn’t have any air bubbles, and then it is thrown on the wheel head. Once the mug has dried to leather hard which usually take about 1-2 days, I will trim and add the handle.
It is then Bisque fired for 6-8 hours at around 1,830 - 1,940 F in order to make strengthen the clay and transform it into a porous state for glazing.
After I glaze my piece, the last step is glaze firing at a temperature of 2,185 - 2,232 F (i use cone 6 @ my home studio) usually taking about 24 hours, depending on kiln size and time to cool down
