New Crystal. This was the best pot from the firing, still getting used to my new kiln and it fires a little hot, so next crystal batch I do needs to be reduced by 20degrees, But much better than I expected! Whoop! #babsbelshaw is a #potter #designermaker #working in #porcelain  using #crystal #glazes she is based in #Carnew #Wicklow #Ireland via Instagram

Master Reuben keeping an eye on things.. He loves nothing more than laying beside a warm kiln. Still a few things to do before proper cold winter comes like fixing that window! #babsbelshaw is a #potter #designermaker #working in #porcelain  using #crystal #glazes she is based in #Carnew #Wicklow #Ireland via Instagram

I have a kiln full of crystals just switched on! Fingers crossed. This is my first crystal firing in my new studio. I’m having a bit of trouble with my other glazes but once its fixed (hopefully next week) I will have plenty of pots for sale on my online shop. Stay tuned! via Instagram

Let hope I find some answers in here! via Instagram
