A Combination Kiln

This kiln used entirely clear cullet. The pieces did not turn out due to what we can only assume was devitrification on the exposed surface of all of the pieces. Since we melted them twice (to add more cullet), some devit got caught in the middle of the pieces, which I find is very distasteful.







Dragon head, bowl machete, pepper core, pepper skin
