Each piece is thrown on the potters wheel by Tyson using a porcelain clay body. It is then painted with homemade underglazes by Jessica. The pieces go into a bisque kiln and come out ready to dip in glaze. Both the liner (the inside color) and the outer clear glaze recipes were developed by Tyson for maximum beauty and durability. Then it's into a cone 6 glaze kiln. They come out nice and shiny. Next we apply our homemade decals, which are derived from Jessica's original pen and ink drawings, and it's back into the kiln for a third firing which fuses the decals into the surface of the glaze.
