Hiroshi Shino







































Here is a shino tea bowl from the latest firing. It is on Hestia clay from Highwater. This shino is mainly feldspar so don't really know if it qualifies but it does have 4.5% bentonite!

  1. Beautiful, and thanks for the recipe, I wonder if I can make it work in cone 6 reduction.

  2. Lori,

    I don't know but will let you know when I run all these 40 recipes through a cone 6 reduction firing. (Similar to Hikidashi-guro which is Japanese for "to open drawer and remove." So they take it out at cone 6 and quick cool it. Sounds like cone 6 shino to me!)

  3. Lori,

    I just noticed that the glaze can shiver so maybe a little less spodumene ?? Let me check it out a bit more.

  4. Is it the same glaze inside as out? Did it shiver at ^6 or ^10?

  5. Lee,

    It is Frank Boyden Shino inside and Hiroshi Shino outside, It shivered on two pots that were a bit thick. I will try the recipe with 25 Spodumene and replace 10 with F-4.
