I moved to an area that does not have a single pottery studio nearby. I was really depressed although I just started doing pottery but something about pottery is so satisfying. Going to take the time to invest in putting a small setup in my garage.
Hello! I was wondering if you are supposed to let the underglaze sit a little until it’s a little dry before rinsing it off? Thank you! I’m so excited to try!
Hi Erica, I usually don’t let it sit for any particular length of time. I just wait until the whole thing has been covered and then I gently rinse it off. Just be careful not to rub it whilst you are rinsing off the phone. Good luck and let me know how it goes :)
I only leave mine about 5 minutes and then wash it off. I wonder why your colour came off? Maybe try a different shaving foam? I think some foams are a bit greasier than others. Perhaps the one you used before was a bit greasy, and made a barrier between the bisque and the underglaze?
Hi there. I haven't had an issue with clear glaze sticking. Do you mean it won't stick to the bisque or that it comes off when you are glazing? I find if I make sure to run it under water long enough it seems fine.
I have some bisque ware that are ready for this!! Question though, do you fire the piece with high fire or low fire? I have some amaco underglaze and would like to fire it to cone 10.
Hi there, I used a brand called Nivea. It was just a regular man's shaving foam. The water would have been luke warm from a mixer tap. And, yes, I used a clear glaze that was zinc free. It was a Duncan brush on glaze. Hope that helps :)
Hi Kathy, I haven't ever tried to marble the inside of a bowl like this. It must be possible though. I'll give it some thought and come back to you if I have any ideas.
Hi Suchika, thanks for your comment. If you want to use it in the kitchen you will need to glaze it with pottery glaze. After you've used the above technique, wait for the bowl to dry then carefully apply a couple of coats of clear pottery glaze. Then it needs to be fired in a kiln. Do you have access to a kiln? If not I could recommend some places to try... good luck..
@@ThePotteryWheel Woww😊 thankyou for the details, so sweet of you, also can I put it in oven? if not kiln? cuz for one or two products who will kiln it for me
I made the video before I'd fired it. You can see a picture of the glaze bowl on this post thepotterywheel.com/how-to-make-marbled-pottery/ Just jump to the section on underglaze if you want. After the underglaze has dried, I just apply some clear glaze and fire it. Hope that helps.
Hi there, I'm sorry to hear it rinsed off with the water and foam. Someone else mentioned something similar in another comment and I wonder if it has something to do with the foam you used. I heard that some shaving foam is a bit waxier than others. What type of foam did you use? what kind of underglaze?
@@ThePotteryWheel we've tried to apply different underglaze colors ( ready-made Amaco and made by our selves with high temperature color pigments) on a different porcelain bisque ( after 900C fire and after 1280C, 1380C fire, different types of porcelain) with an usual shaving foam, not very expensive. I didn't understand what exactly underglaze did you use? It is like glaze or like an underglaze paint? What is it consist from?
@@TheOlchers I used Duncan Concepts underglaze in this video. It's just a standard underglaze for bisque, nothing fancy. Not underglaze paint, just underglaze. I think it's mainly available in the UK. But it's pretty standard I think. I was wondering if it was because the porcelain was less porous but if you've tried it after various different bisque temperatures, then that seems unlikely. It's definitely a head-scratcher. I've used this method on earthenware and stoneware but not porcelain. Have you tried anything other than porcelain? Even if you mainly use porcelain, you could try the technique out on something else, and if it works on eg earthenware, then at least you know its the bisque rather than the underglaze. Let me know how it goes...
@@ThePotteryWheel I've just right now tried to apply on a 900C fired hard type of porcelain... underglaze paints, some amount stayed on piece after sometime waiting before rinsing. So I will glaze it then and fire on a high temperature, lets see how it will be
I really need someone to do a test for me. Take some wood and carve it into a small figure or buy a small wooden figure and paint it then cover it all with pottery glaze and see if it turns wood to stone

I can't wait to try this! I have some big 5lb bowls that it would be nice to be able to glaze without using tons of time. This looks amazing!
Hi, could you use shaving foam and some stroke and coat to achieve this effect? Thanks.
Great technique! Thanks for sharing and excited to try. What shaving cream did you use?
hope you don't mind a subscriber that usually shuns wheel thrown pottery... I absolutely love your work! From your newest subscriber.
Thank Mark, I just check out your channel and love your work too. Subscribed right back at you!

I'm a ceramist, I'm going to try that big time lol Black,Gold and Silver marble effect
that sounds like it would be amazing. I hope it works :)
How long should you wait before washing it off? When I tried this a while ago I just ended up washing the colour off to!

pro tip : you can watch series on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.
@Kingston Kelvin yup, have been using Flixzone} for months myself =)
@Kingston Kelvin Yup, I have been using flixzone} for since december myself :D
@Kingston Kelvin Definitely, I've been watching on Flixzone} for months myself =)
Hello there! Very cool video! Do you have a problem that clear glaze do not stick to the piece properly after shaving foam?
Hi there. I haven't had an issue with clear glaze sticking. Do you mean it won't stick to the bisque or that it comes off when you are glazing? I find if I make sure to run it under water long enough it seems fine.
I have some bisque ware that are ready for this!! Question though, do you fire the piece with high fire or low fire? I have some amaco underglaze and would like to fire it to cone 10.
Depends on the colors you want to use
Hi there! What kind of shaving cream did you use? And was the water hot warm or cold? Also did you use zinc free clear glaze on top?
Hi there, I used a brand called Nivea. It was just a regular man's shaving foam. The water would have been luke warm from a mixer tap. And, yes, I used a clear glaze that was zinc free. It was a Duncan brush on glaze. Hope that helps :)
@@ThePotteryWheel thank you for your reply, yes it helps!
Is your piece greenware or bisqued? Thanks
I am so going to try this 🙂
Loving this technique, I will be trying it at some point. Any idea if it would work on greenware? Not bone-dry, but at the stiff leather point.
Absolutely Gorgeous...
This is great!
Do u let the piece dry before washing it off??
no, I just leave it for a few minutes
Hello. This effect is beautiful! Have you ever tried to do the inside of the bowl? I have a large vessel sink and would like to marble the inside.
Hi Kathy, I haven't ever tried to marble the inside of a bowl like this. It must be possible though. I'll give it some thought and come back to you if I have any ideas.
@@ThePotteryWheel maybe spread the foam on sturdy paper or plastic that you can pick up and bend to fit the inside of the bowl
This so beautiful😍 what varnish did you use for your bowl so it becomes safe if we want to try something on utensils for the kitchen.

Do you think it would look as vibrant on a red clay?
I am sensitive to the scent in shaving foam. Are you aware of any alternative upon which the stain can be suspended?
hmm, interesting question. I don't know. Let me think about that. There must be a substitute...
@@ThePotteryWheeldid you find a substitute for shaving foam? We only have shaving gel at the moment ha
Do you apply this to bisque pieces?
Yes, I bisque first
Why didn't you show it after it was fired?
I made the video before I'd fired it. You can see a picture of the glaze bowl on this post thepotterywheel.com/how-to-make-marbled-pottery/ Just jump to the section on underglaze if you want. After the underglaze has dried, I just apply some clear glaze and fire it. Hope that helps.
How long did you wait before you rinsed?
Not very long at all, around 5 minutes.
Nice, but it doesn't work with porcelain biscue, colors are also rinsing off with water and foam... any suggestions?

@@ThePotteryWheel and yes porcelain much less porous. May be just bisque after 890-900C can be used for this
