Thank you for sharing your techniques and tools. Your generosity has inspired me (and many others I’m certain) who struggle with “manly” throwing methods. This is a beautiful form that I am excited to try!
Thank you for your comment 😊 Every potter has different methods. I’m small and don’t have power…..🥹 But I want to throw! So this is my way of throwing and I’m happy to know someone likes my form ❤️
Thank you for your comment Dee😊. As ‘this project is on going one I included the failed ideas. I hope viewers can experiment this project and bring the ideas back.
I cannot wait to make these. I've been making oil bottles for quite sometime but I love the idea of making a bottle that doesn't depend on the addition of a mass produced spout. Doing it this way will help keep costs down as well as selling prices up do to the unique design. Thank so much for sharing, this has made my day!!!
That is an awesome bottle. Thank you for sharing. The process of making the bottle and your careful explanation is wonderfully useful to a novice novice potter. I will aspire to this bottle, but it might take a while!
your work is so inspiring. i’m always sad when the video ends because i want to see your glaze processes too... the warm energy comes through very well.
Hi Rebecca 😊 Thank you for your comment! I know ONE PIECE Jar is Addicted 😉 This is worse…….. 😆 Specially when the oil stop pouring and doesn’t drip at all I feel so good. I keep pouring oil.
Thank you so much for sharing your design, it’s a Genius design 👏 I love the oil bottles 😍 I do make olive oil bowls that I sell, but make the top separately on the hump with a pouring lip on the neck of the bottle, but your is lovely 😊
Thank you for your comment Mel😊. Oil bottle is one of the subject I want to explore more. Thank you so sharing your design! It sounds very interesting.
I really enjoy your videos. Please could you also show your glazing process. I'm interested in how you glaze and fire the bottle tops so that they still fit the bottle.
Thank you for your comment Andrew😊. Sorry I missed the glazing part in this video😅. The glazing process is quite important for this project. How to separate the lid after firing is also I want to video in the future. Thank you for asking. I will include that part in the future.
This is fascinating! I’ve used stain bottles in a lab that had a similar design; however, there was a channel in both the bottle’s neck and the lid. By turning the lid so that the channels aligned, the liquid was allowed to flow out.
Beautiful pieces and great explanation! I’m curious about the wooden stick you use for smoothing the inside. Is it a specific tool? Or one you created yourself
Thank you for your question 😊 The wooden tool is my original. This bar has 90 degree corner at the bottom so I can use it to shape the internal corner also. It is simple but super useful one. I recommend to use hard wood. Mine is soft wood as I couldn’t find long size hard wood. It still works well but the wood grain catches the clay sometime. I’ve got used to so no problem now. I use this tool a lot in my video. If you like to make a own tool i recommend to make this one.
Thank you for your question 😊 That tool is hand made wooden tool. It has flat bottom to shape an internal corner and bottom. It also be use to bring the wall up. You can easily make it. If you have hard wood which is better than soft pine wood. The hard wood has finer grain and tougher for the water. Mine is soft wood and sometimes grain catches the clay. I have got use to so not a big problem but if you are going to make a new one I recommend hard wood.
Thank you for all of the time and effort that went into this video! It is very informative, and it is a pleasure to watch you work. Can I request that you raise the camera slightly when you trim the bottom? I would like to see you create the foot ring.
Thank you for your comment Aslia😊. Yes I glazed the inside. The overlap parts were well waxed and cleaned. I fire them the lid on so the joint part were very carefully cleaned from the glaze. After the firing, it is difficult to take lid so please dip into the boiled water for a while then gently tap the lid ( covered with towel) then the lid should pop!
Again, I just love these closed form techniques! I'm fascinated by the mix of science and art for making vessels designed for specific contents.
Thank you Irina😊. This pot is really fun! I will complete the mission 😁
I agree I have learnt a lot! The science of homeware is very important to a potter!
Thank you for watching Sarah😊
im verry happy to see the end result! it really worked!! good job!! love it!
Thank you for watching 😊 It hasn’t completed yet. There are some cases don’t work. I will clarify the safe line.

@@AlchemyCeramic I’ve just realised I made a spelling mistake! I meant to say bottles, not bowls 🙃
😆 No worry! I realize that. Maybe new idea we can try🤔
Glorious! (As always)
Thank you😊
This is a fun idea. I like that I have a community of people working on the same project and that same solutions. Thank you
Thank you Jenny😊. Yes this is nice way to move on!

Can you please share what is your wooden throwing tool ? The one you use to pull the height ?? Thank you 😊

@@AlchemyCeramic I just saw your video about creating a concealed foot ring - thank you for being so thorough!
I’m glad you checked my other video. Thank you for letting me know😊
Very nice project! Did you glaze the bottle on the inside?
Thank you for your comment Aslia😊. Yes I glazed the inside. The overlap parts were well waxed and cleaned. I fire them the lid on so the joint part were very carefully cleaned from the glaze.

Beautiful! How much clay do you use to make that bottle? Thanks
Thank you for watching 😊 800g:)
How much clay do you use? It's amazing 😍!
Thank you for watching 😊 800g
There is such a thing - a plaster mold is called, for clay casting) ...
Thank you for your info 😊
@@AlchemyCeramic ))
BEAUTIFUL 😊
