Description

A step-by-step guide to the technique of pottery for both the beginner and the competent amateur craftsman. The book discusses clay preparation, wheel performance and the various forms that can be thrown on a wheel. It also covers techniques beyond the throwing: how to alter a thrown form; how to make edges, ridges, ribs and lids; throwing large-scale pieces; adding forms; and how to throw a series of small lumps from a single large lump of clay. - from Amzon
