Renowned potter Mary Fox shares her hard-earned knowledge about glazing in this book that encourages ceramicists to experiment with confidence.

Many potters find the glazing process difficult, if not downright intimidating. And with the prevalence of ready-made glazes, potters often overlook the exceptional results that can be achieved by experimenting with minerals and clay slips. Mary Fox takes readers on an exploration of unique glaze materials, providing step-by-step instructions and demonstrating how to bring a creative and adventurous attitude to the process.

All the glazes in this book are fired from cone 06 to 04. Low-temperature firing saves enormously on energy use, making the process more sustainable and cost-effective. Plus, the ingredients Fox uses in her low-fire recipes are readily available and most are inexpensive.

With Developing Glazes, potters can start approaching glazing in the same way they might develop a recipe in their kitchens, bringing in play, excitement and fun.

All royalties from the book will be donated to the endowment fund for the Legacy Project, which aims to develop young potters' careers through apprenticeships, residencies, affordable studio space and a library of videos documenting the sharing of techniques.
