Salt glazing, with its distinctive "orange peel" surface, has long attracted
both ceramicists and collectors. In his book, well known potter Phil Rogers looks
at all aspects of this very special glaze technique.
Salt Glazing covers the history of salt glazing and the technical considerations—particularly
kilns—that set this form of glazing apart from all others. Rogers also showcases
the work of leading salt glaze artists such as Byron Temple, Jeff Oestrich, and
Hans and Birgette Børjeson.
Beautifully illustrated, Salt Glazing is a must for students, professional
potters, and collectors of studio ceramics who enjoy the wonderful surface textures
this popular medium provides. |

All contemporary potters face a common dilemma. Knowledgeable about many world traditions and free to make just about whatever they want, they must find some grounding, some basis for developing a cohesive, personal vision.

Lavish illustrations throughout this book show the textures and colours that characterize old and contemporary salt glaze, and celebrate the work of leading salt-glaze makers as part of the continuous legacy of the alchemy of salt, clay and fire.
