The Return of Ducks Head

At long last, Ducks Head Black has returned. It has been a long road and the journey isn't quite over, but this beautiful combination of black, silver, green, blue and iridescence is once again in production. Of course, the production season is about at its close for 2011, but there's more to tell on that score as well!

You can read more about this at the Lowell Hill Pottery blog.

Holiday Special

Light a candle against the cold and dark this holiday season. Even the smallest of lights will shine brightly through the three evergreen tree cutouts to warm hearts and remind everyone of brighter days ahead!

These candle holders are available in the new Evergreen glaze only and sell for $35 each or a pair for $60. Go to the Lowell Hill Pottery web site to find them. The supply is limited so don't wait!

Closing in on Duckshead

After many trials - and failures - Duckshead seems close at hand. This combination of black and silver, intended to mimic the iridescent sheen of a mallard's head feathers, has been frustrating and slow in coming. The latest formula on which tests are being conducted is a proven base glaze used for the Moss Agate. Here is a sample of the base I am now using:
 

Now it's a matter of balancing the coloring oxides to produce that special blend of black and silver. Stay tuned!

The Return of Jonquil Yellow
