Making Pottery: How to Create Agateware

Hi I'm Betty Ingham on behalf of Expert Village. We would show you the finish product in a minute because this is the bisque where. This is 2 kinds of clay that we put together and when we throw it on the well we bring it up it makes this swirling look. Now when we put it in the gas keel this would turn brown, this would stay white and this is the one with iron and this is the just the plain white clay. Then we put red in the middle, dip the handle in red, and we just come down with a little drip with red and it is called agate a-g-a-t-e or a agateware. We like to call it agateware because one time I said agateware at a show and a lady ask me where is the gate to open was so we just started calling it agate you can pronounce it both ways.
