Stoneware is a rather broad term for pottery or other ceramics fired at a relatively high temperature.A modern technical definition is a vitreous or semi-vitreous ceramic made primarily from stoneware clay or non-refractory fire clay.Whether vitrified or not, it is nonporous (does not soak up liquids);it may or may not be glazed. Historically, across the world, it has usually been developed after earthenware and before porcelain, as kiln and has often been used for high-quality wares.
The tops parts of the sculpture TDL (Stoneware). I took this photograph just prior to sketching the profile of the entire sculpture on the paper, which I then sent to Katie Schofield so she could use it in creating her Floor Mandorla.
I made this little tray for myself. It's about the right size for a single roll. It uses a blue wood ash glaze over stoneware.

I made these when I was still a studio pottery student,.
I have kept very little of my own work over the years as I made it for money not as a hobby!
I still use these two.
The glazes are Temmoku on the top half of the big one and both insides, and wood ash glazes on the rest.
I always made all my own glazes: it is extremely interesting chemically.
