Hi folks - thanks for all the comments, it's been a pleasure reading through them and seeing your enthusiasm for these tests. It's always a great feeling when there's a response like this. I know I don't ask... well, I've never asked, but I spoke to my YT manager, (yes I have one), and she told me that likes on videos do genuinely really help, so if you could leave a like I'd be immensely grateful! Secondly... if there's any more tests like this you'd like to see, or something different, or if you have any interesting ideas, I'd love to hear them! I'll soon be starting a new making cycle and want to get a gauge on what sort of videos you guys want to see. Have a brilliant, peaceful Sunday, and thanks so much for watching!
I have a tip I've learned from being a lazy baker, which might apply when mixing glaze. Typically the smaller ingredients are more sensitive to variance in amounts, so you may find yourself fussing over getting every last speck out of the measuring vessel. Assuming you use the same measuring vessel for several ingredients, you start with measuring the smallest ingredient, pour out, tare, measure the next smallest, and so on, until the largest ingredient. This way every last bit of the smaller ingredients gets included, and the amounts that are included in the mix are very close to what you measured.
While the raw clay was stunning, the final fired glaze is breathtaking. The metallic look and dappled aesthetic is beautiful and very unique for pottery
The original colour is so punchy - I mean, in theory, I could simply mix a whole batch of clays with colourful stains and fire them in my electric kiln, it's the reduction firing that causes some clays to dull down, but that would require a lot more testing! Maybe a future video series?
Vídeo séries pleaseee Florian. This new clay is Just beautiful and a also really Love seing your work with metálic effects. It is such a different aproach but at the same time has You unique essence in it. Definetly a Florian line
Thank you for the warning about the respirator. Ive been involved in both automotive and hobbyist painting communities for a couple years now, and the amount of guys that will tell their viewers to use something incredibly toxic, without so much as a warning that theyre recommending life-threatening chemicals, is absolutely jarring.
The comment about cleaning up looking like a murder scene reminded me of my first week working at Sherwin Williams. The bottom of a gallon of red tint exploded in a shaker. A few drops of pigment colors an entire gallon of paint and IT. NEVER. DRIES. Being the newbie, I was tasked with cleaning it up. My boss had a very good picture of me laying against the shaker after hours of scooping, wiping, sponging, and there's still a huge puddle of red around me. I was knee and elbow deep in red and looked like *I* was the murder victim. Everything I was wearing had to be trashed 🥲
DID THE CATERPILLAR SURVIVE THE REDUCTION ATMOSPHERE?? WE NEED AN UPDATE! Just kidding, these pots are just stunning. I remember watching you talk about your goals with all of the glaze tests; and, I think you are absolutely succeeding in what you wanted to accomplish! Well done, friend!
I like the amount of fillings in these. It makes them look like they are made of metal that has oxidized / aged to an old and pitted state. Very nice I tend to like blues and greens but this red combination is great.
Its such a tiny thing, but I really loved your inclusion of being caught of guard by that little bug. Sometimes when you watch an expert in their craft, they can begin to feel a bit superhuman. Its nice to see the god of pottery humanised a bit, makes your vast expertise seem a little less impersonal!
Finally! Part one of this is how I discovered your channel months ago, so finally getting to see the end result is very exciting! They turned out beautiful
It's such a pleasure to see you experiment new glazes and new materials ! These pots are magnificent. Love the crimson color and how the surface changes with light. Can't wait to see how it looks on bigger pots with your New ajustements.
The amount you have improved in the artistry and experimentation of your pieces over the last few years is incredible! It feels like you're going from a production thrower to a mad Potter. Cant wait for what you have in store next! Absolute inspiration for aspiring potters
I love your usual green glazes, but this is beautiful on a whole other level. This reminds me of the timeless beauty of ancient Greek bronzes. Absolutely stunning.
Wow, I really like how that clay body and glaze worked out together. It's clear that the camera doesn't really capture what they look like to the eye. When you install them for exhibition it would be nice to get some good photos of these.
I only recently (not even a month ago) go into your content but good lord, those things are beautiful. I never expect to see pottery that looks like metal, spectacular work.
These are quite stunning, didn't know that you could combine metal in pottery like this! Your narration was incredible as well, excited to see more of your beautiful pieces
I have never seen a video like this that goes into this level of detail! It was incredible! Thank you for giving us such an intimate and complete look into your process!
I love this so much, as someone who lives in a more tropical region those pots look exactly like prickly pear fruit. Which is amazing, i can only imagine them filled with them.
Really cool. There is a certain farmhouse/homestead aesthetic here in the US that would absolutely lose their minds over these. I noticed one thing with your bucket and your ingredients when mixing. You can try sliding the lid onto the bucket to close it off and that will reduce the amount of fine particles getting loose. Uses the same principle as controlling a grease fire in a pot. By sliding the lid on you are disturbing the air less inside the container.
I love the color of these pots, but I have to admit the pockmarked look is a bit off-putting. What if you tried using more of a powder instead of larger bronze bits?
The reflective surface works super well when they are lined up next to each other at the end of the video. The differently angled surfaces makes the light play very pretty. Also very interesting how different it looks with white and blue backgrounds.
Wow, those are absolutely stunning! I've always had a soft spot for metallic glazes, and these pots have a great elegance to them! The bronze specks add just enough surface texture to be visually intriguing without being distracting. Beautiful!
I personally really like the reflective properties of the glaze, though I think a smoother finish would make it more luxurious, maybe use finer or powdered bronze filings 😊 I think it’s a definite winner 👍❤
I love your work. I love your studio. I really miss my high school years, but only because I had all my art classes and Pottery was one of them. I love working with clay, and other sculpting materials.
From the footage it seems the angular design works beautifully with the way the glaze interacts with light. It is striking how a single vessel can both have sections that appear matte crimson, and sections that appear metallic grey.
Love the high contrast with the green glaze. Copper is soft, but so surprised you don’t feel (or get nicked:) by the shavings when turning. Lovely results!!❣️
As much as I appreciate your artistic talent and technical skills, I’m even more bowled over by your scientific understanding of the process and your ability to explain it to us! Admittedly, much of it flies over my head, but I really appreciate that it’s not just magic. 😄
The first video of yours I saw was the short of you wedging the red clay. I've been eagerly waiting to see the final product and they are so cool & unique looking. Love them!
Lovely. I have intensely light sensitive vision, and for me, those pots came out looking almost purple, One of my favorite three shades as a matter of fact. A beautiful gunmetal iridescent purple. Like the rainbow film on a droplet of oil that has been spread just right across the surface of metal. And yet, I also still saw the beautiful contrast of the high iron red ceramic an the bronze! Truly Lovely!
This was so lovely to watch, Florian! Appreciate all the work you put into making these incredible videos for us to watch (and of course, the actual pottery too!)
These videos make me want to take up pottery. I unfortunately have neither the time nor the space, and certainly not the money, but watching your videos feels the same as watching Bob Ross paint. It doesn't make it look easy, but it makes it so beautiful that you want to try anyway.
You guys, don't forget to like his videos if you're a long time fan! I know I forget sometimes, but I just only see 719 likes on a video with 1.6 views, give the man some love! Especially if you've been waiting on this video as long as me😂❤
I think the red glaze is very cool. Perhaps one could take advantage of the reflective hue nature and place each one on a different stripe of colour to empasize how they blend and reflect.
These pots are very, very beautiful - and I'm sure their velour would only read all the clearer and more dynamic in person. Admittedly, watching your videos always fills me with itchy anticipation. Your extremely measured and regularized movements, your rigorous mixing and coning and shaping and trimming and firing and glazing and firing again (and sometimes again, and again); but also your decanting, your unwrapping and unfurling, your handling and storing, your absurd wrapping and rewrapping and boxing, and especially your cleaning, yes, your cleaning; all these actions/behaviors (many more could be listed), for me, make up the media of your practice as much as bronze flecks and course or fine clay bodies. And they are ever exaggerated by the severe meticulousness of your own documentation, and exhaustive (often recursive) explanation, which likewise contributes to the experience of your pots and practice as a whole, at least for an admirer far-afield. I feel always in wait for 'the other shoe to drop,' for something, anything to go even slightly awry. Nothing ever does. I'm not hoping for error but in incredulous disbelief of total consistency. Something subtle and beautiful always emerges and satisfies within that beauty and that subtlety. But I'm always left, each time, just a little bit more eager for something extreme or crazy or surprising to happen instead. The kiln door opens and butterfly flutters out? Maybe I've been watching too much surrealism. Through your work I meditate on the differences between artist and craftsman. I wonder about our cultural worship of the bombastic, explosively genius, and on our less keen acknowledgment of the rule and fidelity to process, and the ever repeated, though evolving iteration. Thank you always for your work.
They turned out absolutely stunning. It's got to be a trick of the camera, because the finish reminds me of Bath Potters' in house Temmoku fired to oxidation, which takes on a lovely shimmery crystalline surface that looks violet pink sitting on the dark chocolate of the glaze in the sun.
Your discipline is really inspirational and has improved my craft considerably in the short time I’ve been practicing. Your geometric expression have a very personal touch to them. You can feel the focus that goes into those proportions, which makes each pot very much of your hand. For this round, what wonderful clay and glaze. Shockingly beautiful. I wonder if you can give more clear stage to each of the actors. The clay and glaze as quite harmonious but at the same I’d love to see each celebrated individually. As is, they are freaking gorgeous. These are just musings of someone who wishes he had the space and skill to explore this medium as you are. Regarding the metal particles, maybe explore different size particles as well as volume of particles. Maybe exaggerate the variations of particles will add more intrigue without over speckling it? Please keep making!
I was waiting so long for the results of the dark clay! I had been working on my own dark clay recipe with so many failed results. So cool to see how yours turned out!! 22:46
my favourite colour is red to the point where a lot of my wardrobe includes it and i have dyed my hair red for years. every time you work with this tone of clay i get so excited both because your work is gorgeous and because i just really enjoy the red
The red clay and steel and bronze inclusions videos where the first videos I saw and why I started following. I had completely forgotten about them and I didnt realize they werent that long ago. Great to see a follow up. I was completely stunned by the finished result. Theyre gorgeous. I wasnt at all expecting the specular 2 tone effect and the overall metallic shine. It really turned out wonderfully. I like how reflective they are, it gives an interesting interaction between the piece and the environment that speaks to me. The spiral blending would definitely be to my taste if that was ever something you ventured into. But i can see why not.
I cannot e press how much I adore these vessels you made. The glaze is stunning, and I simply must see more made with this clay body, personally I would .ove to see further experimentation with the amount of bronze shavings in the clay, I really love this overall effect. I would love to have something with the exact formula you used in this video. Excellent work, and this earned my subscription! Looking forward to seeing more of your work with this clay body!
They looked wonderful in the light coming out the oven, when that blue silver catches it is quite spectacular. I agree that maybe less bronze will be better looking. Maybe an experiment to get that original red of the clay may also turn out great.
I think the technique would look really cool with a blue or pink glaze. I'm not remotely as good as you are, but I've got a piece I made with an old blue glaze that has bronze in it and it ended up with this really lovely speckled color with bronze edges that I love.
Uh, this glaze is BEAUTIFUL! ❤ And the pots have all such wonderful shapes! It is always amazing how colour changes during firing - and this clay is no exception! From blood-red to this dark black-red... Thanks for taking us on this wonderful journey. 😊
i love how this combination of glaze + bronze spotting looks almost cosmic, especially when you place them on a lighter, reflective surface. they really land in a brilliant middle ground between resembling the naturalistic (tree bark, etc) and the futuristic (through the metallic, meteoric quality they take on, combined with the precise minimalism of the forms)! fantastic work as always!! :)

20:34 Test: reliable method for musical pots. Seems tricky. Florian thank you for sharing so much of yourself.
Have you ever thought about sagger firing some of these in charcoal with no glaze?
You could try the metal shavings with an indigo or violet glace to make a bigger contrast that could look great
I have a tip I've learned from being a lazy baker, which might apply when mixing glaze. Typically the smaller ingredients are more sensitive to variance in amounts, so you may find yourself fussing over getting every last speck out of the measuring vessel.

Noting this for my own ceramics.
Noting this for my next baking adventure 😂 I would never imagine getting a baking tip on a pottery channel but it’s appreciated 😊

@@floriangadsbyYes, please!
my thoughts exactly! i love beautifull reds and the shimering surface, and the way it looks so difrent in difrent lighting is amazing!
That would be amazing to watch! Although it sounds like a ton of work.

Yes! It's been hardened with a glaze finish and looks fabulous now
@@whynotanyting what a story to tell in the bug afterlife
The bronze filings paired with this glaze really do give the ceramics a more cohesive look! Can’t wait to see what else is created with this combo
I have been waiting for this video for so long, I can't believe this!
I was so curious to see how they would turn out.
I like the amount of fillings in these. It makes them look like they are made of metal that has oxidized / aged to an old and pitted state. Very nice I tend to like blues and greens but this red combination is great.

You show how important it is to keep things clean and organized. So good.
wow this is my favorite work I've seen from you, I personally really like the metallic and reflective color
Those macro shots look like a satellite image of a new world! Love seeing the whole process!
i liked hearing the plane in the background around the middle. It made it feel much more real, like you are just a flight away
Finally! Part one of this is how I discovered your channel months ago, so finally getting to see the end result is very exciting! They turned out beautiful

I have never seen a video like this that goes into this level of detail! It was incredible! Thank you for giving us such an intimate and complete look into your process!
I always enjoy the explanations on how things work… the science behind the clay, glaze, and firing
Simply stunning. I really love the look of these.
Really love color of this raw clay, such a cozy warm red 😊
And the final result is magnificent. I'd love to have cups like these.
It looks like a rusting metal in the prettiest way. Awesome!
The original color of the clay is so beautiful.
A collection with that color would be stunning.
the lighting and the composition of the shot at 6:21 is beautiful
I love this so much, as someone who lives in a more tropical region those pots look exactly like prickly pear fruit. Which is amazing, i can only imagine them filled with them.

I love the final look of these pots. Kind of reminds me of the surface of some sort of red moon. Red moon pots :)
There's something so satisfying about the glazing process, it's hypnotic
The reflective surface works super well when they are lined up next to each other at the end of the video. The differently angled surfaces makes the light play very pretty. Also very interesting how different it looks with white and blue backgrounds.
Absolutely stunning... I was left speechless when you took then out....
Wow, these ended up looking almost like meteorite! Absolutely gorgeous, which isn't surprising considering the precision in your work.

That glaze and bronze flecks are really interesting! It’s amazingly organic looking, reminds me of prickly pear.
I personally really like the reflective properties of the glaze, though I think a smoother finish would make it more luxurious, maybe use finer or powdered bronze filings 😊 I think it’s a definite winner 👍❤
Wow this looks amazing. Red in most lights, reddish-grey in some lights, and sometimes in looks purple!

Oh my Gosh, every time I watch this I’m just in love. They are incredible. I so wish I could make mine this gorgeous.
Here I am thinking I know so much about ceramics because I took a class in high school... really well-made video.
Absolutely stunning. They ask to be touched! Would enjoy seeing more work with this red on red on red.
Wonderful work! Thanks for sharing
Finally! Love the finished work. I have been experimenting with my first bag of Es80 so not quite ready for this just yet!! 😂
Love the high contrast with the green glaze.

I love the spots! You must keep them
Gorgeous. I love the spots. Feels like alien decay.
Amazing video! As a studio pottery who just started mixing their own glazes from scratch, your small commentaries about glazing helps tremendously.
Absolutely gorgeous
These are stunning!

I'm glad you like them. Everything came out very nice, just not something that I would be looking for.
They turned out absolutely stunning. It's got to be a trick of the camera, because the finish reminds me of Bath Potters' in house Temmoku fired to oxidation, which takes on a lovely shimmery crystalline surface that looks violet pink sitting on the dark chocolate of the glaze in the sun.

Very lovely.
Those are such beautiful creations! Truly amazing
Yay Ive been so looking forward to the results of these experiments!
The red clay and steel and bronze inclusions videos where the first videos I saw and why I started following. I had completely forgotten about them and I didnt realize they werent that long ago. Great to see a follow up.
I was completely stunned by the finished result. Theyre gorgeous. I wasnt at all expecting the specular 2 tone effect and the overall metallic shine. It really turned out wonderfully. I like how reflective they are, it gives an interesting interaction between the piece and the environment that speaks to me.
The spiral blending would definitely be to my taste if that was ever something you ventured into. But i can see why not.
Very harmonious combination. Congratulations
I cannot e press how much I adore these vessels you made. The glaze is stunning, and I simply must see more made with this clay body, personally I would .ove to see further experimentation with the amount of bronze shavings in the clay, I really love this overall effect.

My favorite type of mug is an enamel mug. I would love to see you make one in your style and in that beautiful glaze.
Absolutely stunning!
Your work just keeps getting better and better ❤
Just gorgeous. Wow!
I think the technique would look really cool with a blue or pink glaze. I'm not remotely as good as you are, but I've got a piece I made with an old blue glaze that has bronze in it and it ended up with this really lovely speckled color with bronze edges that I love.
Such a beautiful colour, they look stunning 😊
Damascus steel/wagyu clay haha
Heh Damascus clay was exactly my reaction
Uh, this glaze is BEAUTIFUL! ❤ And the pots have all such wonderful shapes! It is always amazing how colour changes during firing - and this clay is no exception! From blood-red to this dark black-red... Thanks for taking us on this wonderful journey. 😊
Those are some really beautiful pots! Well done
Absolutely stunning 😍 Your craftsmanship and attention to detail is a joy to watch and learn from.
I love these. Your work is amazing and beautiful.
I think I know what I'll buy from my first paycheck lol. Your pottery always amazes me
Such a gorgeous result! I would sit and look over them in detail for hours if I had one :)
that color is amazing and beautiful all the red, and i love the flecks in it, amazing work
The color is absolutely beautiful
i love how this combination of glaze + bronze spotting looks almost cosmic, especially when you place them on a lighter, reflective surface. they really land in a brilliant middle ground between resembling the naturalistic (tree bark, etc) and the futuristic (through the metallic, meteoric quality they take on, combined with the precise minimalism of the forms)! fantastic work as always!! :)
