Cut pot


An experiment in using porcelain wedged with iron filings. Wanted a bit of sparkle, or some impact of the colour of iron. 
None of this happened. Handbuilt form. Cut into vertically to create sort of gills. Glazed inside with Egyptian blue and outside with matting blue. Was a bit thick - didn't highlight all the cuts as much as cover them. The iron filings may have helped further flux the glaze causing it to run down more.
