Thanks for the comments hang10, Hilda and Pidders.

I did a small glaze firing not long after my last post but only these two mugs turned out ok. The others have been touched up and are back in the kiln (along with several other 1/1's) waiting for me to fill it with the mugs that will be going to the bar. Just waiting for some better weather so i can get outside and spray them.

Keeping this one for myself.

Gave this one to the manager of the bar, who requested the mugs, as a gift. First time i've used that gold glaze and i'm really loving it.

And here's a new design i whipped up within a week (not including waiting time for the mold to dry). I came up with the idea and then drew it up, sculpted it and made the mold in about 5 days. Can't see that ever happening again. :lol: Certainly not the most practical shape for cocktails but i seem to making a habit of designing mugs like that.

This is the first one from the mold and still needs to be bisque fired. I'm looking forward to playing around with this design and adding various embellishments.
