Crystal glazes are created by special forming, glazing and firing techniques which are necessary in order to produce dazzling crystals on the pot's surface, reminiscent of flowers, frost or thistles blowing in the wind.

The crystals seem to glow like beautiful pearls. |
"Pottery has been my passion for almost 40 years. Working with clay and glazes is for me a way of exploring the geological beauty of the earth's surface. Although basically a production potter, I am irresistibly drawn to playing and experimenting with the clay in new ways that reveal its connection to its original earth forms. Different clays, glazes and firing techniques are constantly beckoning to me to produce more interesting forms and surfaces." — Jan Pacifico
