A year ago danish government desided, that we Can not import anything from outside Europe unless we pay importfee+danish taxes. Importfee Will be 12,5% and taxes Will be 25%. And Then sometimes YOU have to pay a courier to get it out of custom🙄
Thanks Michele! Yes, it is time consuming, in total it took me about 1,5 hours I think. But I love the process so it's worth it for me. Thanks for chiming in!
@@nukuaceramicsbonaire - getting there slowly. Things are still challenging with my parents. Two months today since we lost my baby Cissy. I'm still searching for my mojo. Hoping to be on the up slowly but surely. Its lovely to see your smiling face 🌝
@@thepotterycorner ow my sweety, I am sorry. But know that things will get better! I am worried about my mum too. She had a fall (she is 85) and is still struggling. No surgery needed but she now needs help for the first time in het life. And I am on Bonaire and can't get to her. It s#cks. Thankfully she get's help and my brother is nearby. Let's stay positive okay? Keep the faith. If ypu ever want to chat you know where to find me! Big hugs coming your way!😘
Dear monique it is so gourgeos. Do YOU mind telling how much Black Mason stain YOU put it your slip? I can’t get mine Black - it is more gray’ish. I love your vase, and I wish YOU were closer, Then I would buy one. Custom for getting one to Denmark is horrible🥺. Thanks for your videos - love Them❤️🙏
Thank you four your kind words Lisbeth! Sure I'll share; I put in 10% in weight of the Velvet Black Mason stain. I mix it with the slip I allready have made so it is not 100% accurate. If you want to be very precise you'd have to weigh dry clay, then add 10% of that weight in Mason stain and mix that. I like to make a big batch of slip instead of having to mix each color in the dry form. But off course you will have to test, as always. 😄Why are the Denmark custom so horrible? I have sent pots to Europe without problems, not to Denmark though...
Thank you so much for your videos. I love watch to you working it's pleasant and satisfying. I think i understand how you use tools to carve. There is one i'm not sur to understand. It's concerning the silver one. You seems to use it to striped the drawing's border. Why to do this? Is it to stop the slip to flow during the cooking?
Hi Oceannielle! Thanks for writing a comment! Slip does not flow or move during the firing. Slip is just clay with a color pigment, it is not a glaze so it does not move at all. I do that carving to take away the color around the drawing for more contrast, that is all. I hope this helps!
I ran across one of your videos a few days or so ago. Your work is beautiful & so unique. The thing that I love almost as much as seeing what you are making is the fact that you are left handed like me. 😊 Can this be done using the traced patterns like those you used to make stamps? Rather using slip trailing, would it be possible to simply trace the pattern over the pot then sgraffito the design? It seems to be an option that might work for those of us who can’t really freehand the design, as well as possibly a bonus way to prevent removing too much of the pattern. Any thoughts?
Hi fellow lefty! 😄 Welcome to my little corner of You Tube! To answer your question: Yes, you absolutely can! Here's a video where I do exactly that as this was a special commission. th-cam.com/video/SN3vojuxmRo/w-d-xo.html
I use all kinds of tools, not a particular favourite. For the 'drawing' of the design I use a stylus, for the carving I use the cheap standard ones aswell as Xiem tools, kemper and Dolan tools. I sometimes bend them to the shape I want.
Is the white just the white of the clay? Or do you add white glaze after the bisque firing. My whites are never that bright, with just clear glaze on top and I’ve tried several white clays . Is it porcelain?

@@nukuaceramicsbonaire Thank you so much, fellow lefty. 😊
nice
Love it but i dont have the patience!
Thanks Sharon, hihi, I don't always either..🤪
Can you tell me what sgraffito tool you are using. Beautiful work. Thank you.
I use all kinds of tools, not a particular favourite. For the 'drawing' of the design I use a stylus, for the carving I use the cheap standard ones aswell as Xiem tools, kemper and Dolan tools. I sometimes bend them to the shape I want.
Is the white just the white of the clay? Or do you add white glaze after the bisque firing. My whites are never that bright, with just clear glaze on top and I’ve tried several white clays . Is it porcelain?
Yes it is just the white clay with clear glaze. It is Laguna WC 609 smooth stoneware with Laguna MS 29 clear bright glaze.
Thankyou so much very kind of you to clarify that for me. I haven’t seen Laguna clay, in my suppliers . I might need to shop around a bit more .
