Calcite Formations

Calcite Formations: dimensions: 14”- 30’’ diameter, some fountains are stacked and become 65” tall. A cave-like structure allows the glazes to drip from a ceiling and form frozen cicles. As these glazes start to melt and dribble, I stop the kiln and freeze the moment of their formation. After the firing, this calcite product will oxidize and develop hair-like crystals.
