This week, in ceramics class, we learned how to add a handle to our pot.
It was an interesting process, and he showed us 2 ways to do it.
The one closest to the camera, is done by stretching the clay out with water.
Note, it is circular in shape.
The one in the back is made by banging it on the work station. It is slowly made flat on one side, instead of round.
What makes it even better, is that no water is used, so you can attach it immediately to your pot. No drying needed.
I have no idea if I will be adding one to some of my work, but it was interesting to learn.
