My stomach dropped when the trimming tool gouged the bottom of the spout! Lovely to see the approach of using a kidney and controlled movements to trim up the top. Beautiful pieces.

Yeah that initial gauge was perhaps a bit much but thankfully it smoothed out okay. And thank you too of course!

This is my all time favorite piece, its the perfect vase

I have learnt so much from your videos, every Sunday there is something from your videos that I take away and implement in my practice. Just sharing with you that after 1.5 months of making cylinders, now with 400 grams I can achieve a little more than 4 inches of height everytime with consistent wall thickness. Thank you 😊❤

My favorite part is the trimming. It’s so satisfying watching the excess come off in curls, leaving a beautiful piece. And I appreciate that the stoneware is not too heavy when it’s finished. As light as possible is so nice! Thanks for the wonderful video!

Pottery truly is an art. High respect for anyone who makes these beautiful pieces 👍🏽

Great work Florian. You are immensely patient and talented. I also like the way you have kept your workplace studio so neat and tidy. 😊

I just found your channel and have been binge watching all of your content your voice is so satisfying

so awesome!

Yay to Thomastown 😊 Beautiful forms. Thanks for the tips on throwing tall and narrow, appreciated

So informative! Thanks so much! I’ve been watching your videos for ages now! It’s great that your following has grown so much, your videos are full of detail and I’ve learnt so much from you.

Great video, thanks. I would love to make pottery. I studied art at school many years ago. They had two wheels and a kiln, but for some reason they never let students go beyond coil pots. I think the teachers just used them themselves. One day I will find somewhere to try it.

Awesome! So relaxing to watch and listen :)

Another great video! Thanks as always for sharing 😊

Your videos are so inspirational. Thank you.

I love your videos, they have a huge asmr potential.

Superb very nice 👌

Hi Florian, teaching how to produce a spout - I like small pottery bowls and jugs with spouts and no handles - so this is a great insight for watching how to make spouts. 🌟T H A N K Y OU🌟

I'm definitely getting a beefy cereal bowl from you at some point as long as they're pretty durable (I might buy 2 just so I have a backup lol).

Big fan

So good

How do you come up with things to make? Like your creative process to make a new form? Love the vids!

Have you got plans for anymore partly oxidised pieces, Florian? I really liked the look of those jars

@floriangadsby

Glad you like them. Of course! I can only ever get about 3-4 pieces like it per firing and sometimes it works much better than others but I always try to get at least that many partly oxidised pieces per firing.

I want to learn 😎

I wish I make like you 👍

Woooww

I love your content! Can you tell me how tall these jars are?

For me this... this is the ASMR version

Could someone answer this, i was watching another video on potters (KZread decided thats all I want to watch now) and it looked like they fired plates and bowls while stacked together, but it cut away and never talked about it more. is this possible when there isnt glaze? as they're all carefully placed not to touch eachother in Florian's videos?

@floriangadsby

2 жыл бұрын

Well.. you can stack them at the bisque firing stage and they won't stick together. You've just got to be careful how high you stack them. If you're glaze firing a stack of plates you can do so with shells stuffed with wadding in-between each, of just wadding, (wadding is a 50/50 mixture of china clay and alumina hydrate, very refractory and strong). But ultimately this means your plates will fire with remnants from the waddings/shells, which can look quite nice. If what you've seen is just a stack of plates fired together to 1250ºc plus then it could be that they were entirely unglazed and it was just bare clay touching each other, in that instance they won't stick but it also depends on what kind of kiln/firing they're exposed to. If you fired a stack of unglazed plates in an electric they may all come out unscathed but they could very easily warp and distort/crack if it's too tall. If you fired a stack in a soda/salt/wood kiln without any supporting waddings they'd all fuse together most likely and if you do the same in just a gas kiln I'd say they'd also most likely stick together but again, it also depends SO much on what type of clay you're using, the atmosphere you're firing in and the temperature to which you fire to. Sorry for the long answer but there's way to explain it easily!

Oh! You studied in Ireland!!? Where abouts did you study if you dont mind me asking. I'm in art college here too, doing painting but we have a ceramics department too and I'm always tempted to sneak in

I was wondering if i can make tableware out of this clay without using glaze? Is it safe?

@floriangadsby

2 жыл бұрын

It can be but you need to fire it so it’s fully vitrified, meaning that water can’t permeate into it. Stoneware fired up to 1280°c is fine, as is porcelain but there can be issues with lower firing bodies and terracotta if not glaze is used.
