I got bored do I made this:
Well it has been about 3 years since I last used my potter's wheel and since it was a hot Sunday I decided to start throwing on it. I got to say it took me about 3 hours (it has to be the rust). I made skuttle that is going to have a handle bucket style, the second piece is a soap bowl which is missing the lid (I will make it tomorrow) and the third is a brush handle for a silver tip badger knot that I bought. Do what do you guys think?

That looks like a neat set! I really like the look of the scuttle with those handles, very cool.

Is that going to be laquered or otherwise sealed?

Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

no porcelain needs to be bisque fired and then glaze fires at ~2400f

The glaze it's going to be something like these with some black
First is a carbon tapping glaze that can have a metallic some to it and the second one is a spoudamine that usually is of a Cramer texture when applied to porcelain bodies.
