I am wondering how the inside fold would look with the top creases rounded or blended into one another? <BR/><BR/>I recently made some folded or undulating bowl forms and I had a hard time getting the glaze to go inside the folds, without overglazing other parts. I used two different glazes on my bowls and let some of the outside drizzle in and the inside drizzle out. I like Ben's idea of the oxide on the outside and liner inside for your cup. I will be curious to see how you glazed it.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424345121258194208.post-31605538335999508192008-11-29T18:44:00.000-08:002008-11-29T18:44:00.000-08:00The video seems to be working fine on my end.

I like this cup quite a lot--it has a really organic and almost human feeling to it. I am also curious about the glazing as well. When I picture it finished, I see it lightly burnished, an oxide wash on the outside and maybe just a liner glaze on the inside. The only issues I have with the cup are in regards to function. While the folding gives it a lot of interest and really adds to the feel of the cup, it might make it hard to clean. The folds may trap stuff. Maybe just smooth the fold on the inside. Then again, you may not be worried about function at all :)Ben Starkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17636935158325560831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424345121258194208.post-48292376680026288032008-11-29T05:32:00.000-08:002008-11-29T05:32:00.000-08:00Seems the video is not wanting to work.
