This is what I've been working towards for two years: a high-fire wild clay mixture without any store-bought or studio-supplied ingredients.

This mini bottle, minus the glaze, is made entirely from clays that i dug out of the ground, and it survived a cone 10 firing without melting or even slumping.

Now that I know it works, I can try actually making something big with it.

@MLE_online fyi you can make good glazing using ashes mixed with some other ingredients (I don't know the full process) and get a glazing from the wild
@eragon I've done it! I have three different ash glazes right now
@MLE_online Do you have pictures of those? I like clay and glazing and ceramics (Nobody tell my father that I like his craft. He already gifts way too many ceramics to me)
