Pink/black tall vase revisited

This shorter vase of the trio was able to be given two more glazes & fires in my usual kiln. The "mezzotint" finish was exactly as I'd hoped would happen.

tall vases: trials and tribulations

They're too tall for the kiln I usually use so had to find another kiln. That kiln blew an element so the vases didn't reach temperature but remained at 1070 for 36 hours before the problem was noticed.  The second glaze in another kiln underfired - the cone 6 I put in only went to about cone 5.  I will see what happens with another firing at a higher temperature, if the pots will let me. They may have had enough.
