Well, this thread is being resurrected lol.

Been taking a ceramics class, ceramics one so it's mostly all throwing (which is what I want to do anyway).

Just posted this over in the pele swap thread, not fired yet so the glaze colors don't look right. But it's ready to go :D
Threw the bowl, the volcano base and the volcano 'shot', then combined the last two.

It's about 6-8" diameter. Guessing it could hold 24-32 oz of delicious beverage.

Today I decided to throw a couple more lava bolws. Maybe I can sell them...
Decided to do a Moai and a palm one this time. Still need bisqued and glazed. And gotta clean up all the little clay poops when it's nice and dry.

These are a bit larger than the first. I didn't weight the clay on the first but these took a 5lb ball of clay each and a 2-3 lb ball for both of the volcanoes.

I'm going to try and sell the lava bowls, possibly Etsy or Ebay but have no idea what I should ask. Does $50 each sound like too much? It took about 6 hours to make them both (still have an hour of glazing probably). Maybe $10 for clay.
They are hand built originals :D
