Clay and rock 2023-09-15

Across

Sgraffito - This comes the Italian word meaning "scratched through" and is done by incising or cutting a design through a colored slip coating to reveal the clay body.
Kiln Shelves - The shelves inside a kiln that ceramic greenware is stacked on in the kiln. The shelves must be coated with kiln wash to prevent glazed pottery from sticking to the shelf.
Pyrometer - Instrument used to record the exact temperature of the kiln.
Firing - Clay is hardened by heating it to a high temperature, fusing the clay particles. Primitive pottery is usually fired on the ground or in pits with whatever flammable material is available. Kilns allow a more efficient use of materials and more control over the atmosphere during a firing. The two basic atmospheres, oxidation and reduction, affect the color of the final piece.
Dry footing - Glaze is removed from the bottom of a piece before firing, making stilting unnecessary. 20. Crazing - The fine network of small cracks that occurs on glazes. The Japanese encourage crazing
Kiln - The furnace in which ceramics are fired. Kilns can be electric, natural gas, wood, coal, fuel oil or propane. Materials used to heat the kiln can affect the work; wood ash can build up on the surfaces of a piece and form a glaze at high temperatures. Some potters introduce chemicals into the kiln to influence the effects of the firing. Famed ceramist Beatrice Wood achieved a lustre effect by throwing moth balls into the kiln.
Raku - Pottery is fired normally but removed when it is red hot and the glaze is molten. It is then usually placed in a bed of combustible materials and covered, creating intense reduction resulting in irregular surfaces and colors.
Shelf Supports - Thick posts used to hold shelves in a kiln.
- incising then applying slip. OR slip may be applied toincised lines and sanded off the raised body.
Pyrometric Cones - These are slender pyramids of ceramics material made in a graded series to melt and indicate when a firing is nearly completed or completed. In an automatic cutoff kiln, they trip a switch when they melt to cut the kiln off.
Pots - Starting with a ball of clay the potter opens a hole into the ball and forms a bowl shape through a combination of stroking and pinching the clay. Many coil-built pieces are constructed on top of a pinched bottom.
Reduction - (Compare to Oxidation) A firing atmosphere with inadequate oxygen and large amounts of carbon (smoke or unburned fuel). What would have been copper oxide in an oxidation atmosphere will be pure copper in reduction. Reduction allowed the Chinese to develop the sangue de beouf red glazes and gives Raku its metallic finishes. In Indian pottery, Maria's black pieces are the result of heavy reduction; the same piece in oxidation would be a terra cotta color.
Leather Hard - A damp condition of the clay when it is too firm to bend yet soft enough to be carved. Plastic stage - clay is easily manipulated and bent. Bone dry stage - No visible moisture - no dampness to touch - Clay is ready to be fired
will stain cracks with concentrated tea.
- A high-fire clay. Stoneware is waterproof even without glaze; the resulting ware is sturdier than earthenware.
- Metal oxides can be mixed with water and applied to the surface of clay. By varying the amount of material applied and rubbed off, the potter can achieve effects similar to stained wood. The most common stain is iron oxide (rust).

Incised - These decorations are surface designs cut into the clay. Mishima (inlaid clay)
Vitrify - A glassy, non-porous state caused by heat or fusion.
Oxidation - (Compare to Reduction) A firing atmosphere with ample oxygen. An electric kiln always gives an oxidizing fire. In a wood or gas firing, the mixture of fuel and air is perfectly adjusted to give a clean burn. Acoma whiteware is fired in oxidation.
Kiln Wash - A mixture of china clay and flint in water solution used to coat kiln shelves to protect them from dripping glaze.
Glaze - A coating of material applied to ceramics before firing that forms a glass-like surface. Glazes
- Unfired clay ready or nearly ready for firing.
Maturing Point - Time and temperature needed to completely fire a glaze or clay object to the
Bisque - Clay that has been fired once, usually at a low temperature.
Stilt - A triangular support for clay pieces that helps prevent glaze from melting on to shelves during a firing.

Large forms are difficult because of stresses on the seams and because the slab naturally sags. Some potters get
