Goblets and chalices part 2

As promised here are the pics of the goblets and chalices from yesterday. I was actually pretty happy with them when I got to the shop this morning.





This is another medium sized pancheon that I threw yesterday as well, before it got its slip.


And here are the 2 pieces that are supposed to be yarn bowls, still not sure about them.


I managed to get everything taken care of this morning. I got the goblets trimmed and slipped. They are a little bit bottom heavy but I think that it will be okay, they are going to be drying for over a month anyway.


I really do like how these came out.
I got the chalices assembled,


and a few of them got slip decoration.

These are honestly the first 2 piece chalices that I have made that I actually liked. Fingers crossed that the stems don't twist in the firing.
I got the pancheon slipped and decorated,


Have I mentioned that I am really enjoying this form.
I also got the New Year's jug slipped and decorated and covered back up.


It is going to live under the plastic for the next couple of weeks at least.
Finally here is the video of the first couple of attempts at yesterday's goblets, including the "gag reel" at the end. I will be doing up another one shortly that shows a couple of the more successful attempts.

I am going to be taking it easy for the next couple of days in preparation for the overnight firing on Tuesday. I will let you know how that goes.
