Slump Pottery

I chose to write about a slump mold because I think that is the technique that I am going to use for my next project.  Slump molds are concave forms, they are usually a bowl or plate.  To make a slump mold glass is usually used and placed inside the kiln.  The glass will soften and slump down into the bowl or plate.  This can also be done using clay and one would drape the clay on the inside of the bowl so that it will take the shape.

I chose this slump bowl because I really liked the design that was used.  It looks like the different colors are woven together.  I also really liked the different colors that were used when creating it.
