Happy that Eugene came out so good and I've got him sitting over by the fireplace. My two sodium silicate pots are the best yet! Those two rutile platters are awesome. I'll get there sooner next time, maybe. 😁😁
Oh my goodness!!! That was an awesome kiln opening!!! Your work is exquisite!!! Was looking for the carved pieces you did on a previous video & I think I spotted a couple of them :0) The snake jug is supreme, as well as sooo many other pieces!!! Bet you & your crew were exhausted by the time you were finished! Many thanks Matthew, for sharing your awesome talent & time!!! Stay safe & well. Headed out to search for your Etsy shop...hope there are some nice things left, being that I saw this months after your initial posting!
There's nothing left on Etsy but I have built my own site now and will be selling on it for upcoming online restocks. I'll be doing a restock with gas fired work on February 26th. My next wood firing will be the end of March.
Great, the kiln looks like it had a glaze firing too :) My fav is the "snake vase" without doubt. The face vases are great too. The 6lb skinny bottle i watched you make came out fantastically! wow [I want it} LOL Everything came out great Matt and thanks for sharing this special video with us. I know just how much work skill and time went into this single firing nd you must be very pleased with most of the results you should be anyway. :)
Thanks Cliff. And thanks for the previous comments and messages. I appreciate you recommending my videos to others. Your Patreon package will be on its way the beginning of the week! Cheers
I especially like the large bowls/platters with glass in the bottom. It doesn’t look like the glass has cracked or crazed. Is there a reason for that? Most times I see glass in the bottom it has cracked to some degree. Not going to make the Seagrove extravaganza this year. Hopefully your pieces will sell. 👍
@@MatthewKellyPottery Thanks I just made a large platter and squished mine and my granddaughters hand prints. I may place some blue glass in the depressions. Probably should experiment first.
That depends on who you ask. I inspect each piece and if there seems to be any large cracks you can feel with your fingernail I will mark them not food safe. Otherwise I’ve seen glazes that craze as much as the glass I put in the bottom.
The snake vase!!! 🐍🐍Yes! Wow! Love love! Your bowels & designs are beautiful!
Your “comet trays” turned out beautiful ! Just imagine them with an indigo background color!
Those platter bowls and that sink are over the top stunning!!!
I so enjoy watching all of your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us.
The face jugs are great and sometime in the future they are going to be worth bucks!! Funny how every Otis I know only has one tooth!! Love this load
HOLY CRAP THAT SNAKE! Is beautiful!
The snake jug is fantastic!!
great firing! I really loved the snake jug and the peacock vase.

Be nice to introduce your helpers there Matthew. But your work is BEAUTIFUL.🎉👏🏼
I wasn’t sure if they wanted to say hi so I opted not to make anyone uncomfortable.
The ultra large lidded pot in the back is amazing!!! Beautiful work!!
Loved the little comet platters. Lovely kiln load! Glad to see one helper was smart enough to mask up.

Great kiln. Lots of beutiful stuff.
That red slip sure does come out GORGEOUS Matt!! GREAT firing.....
Those scales on your snake jug are so real.
Those are amazing. Love your work.
Man, I just love your ash glazes!
Your pots are excellent, one and all. Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful results, may the market reward you for your talent and hard work.
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Wow so much work and you have to be pleased with the outcome. Love that sink and so many other pieces! First snake? You're good! 😊
Oh, Matthew those are beautiful!
Great work! I love the white slip with that light blue glaze.
How exciting to watch. Love them all. The sink and bird bath were my favorites as well as the white lidded pitcher.
You have so many gorgeous pieces from this firing. Thanks for sharing.

Great stuff Matthew! Congrats on another successful firing.
Whatever happened to the pitcher adhered to the floor? Did it survive intact? Thank you for the video.
Yes it did finally come out of the kiln in one piece!
This was definitely Christmastime at MK Pottery! There were some absolutely gorgeous pieces in this firing. Great job!
Beautiful!
Thats. Beautiful kikn. And the ceramics Re awsome too
Love the snake.
How did you do the peacock technique? Really nice!

My Hero!

Beautiful. Loved the snake. How about wrapping it on a planter?
Please add the snake jug to my list!! :)

I see glass in the bottom it has cracked to some degree.

If you see tons of cracks in the glass it’s probably because the glass was too thick in the bottom of the piece.

Ta for sharing!
Fabulous
это шедевры! Очень круто )
Matt will the sea turtle mugs be on your Etsy shop?
Yes
Matthew Kelly Pottery great. Any idea when the restock will be?
Hi Matt. I want to buy a specific pot if it is still available. Do you do that sort of thing, and if so, how?
You can send me the time stamp of when you saw the pot in the video and I’ll let you know if it’s still available.
Matthew Kelly Pottery the vase at 32:50
That was one of the first pieces that sold. I don’t even have any pieces left in that color combination! Sorry
Matthew Kelly Pottery I figured as much! It’s really nice. I’ll have more chances in the future. Thanks for checking.
No “foodsafe” issues with the glass in the bowls?
That depends on who you ask. I inspect each piece and if there seems to be any large cracks you can feel with your fingernail I will mark them not food safe. Otherwise I’ve seen glazes that craze as much as the glass I put in the bottom.
Do you still have one of the turtle mugs for sale? If so please let me know.
I plan to put some on etsy
Thanks
SOLID SNAKE
