Summary
All potters come across problems at some time in their pottery production, and faulty work is both time-wasting, expensive and demoralizing. Ceramic Faults and their Remedies, easy to use and fully informative, will be an enormously helpful source of reference for both craft potters and those working in the ceramic industry. Harry Fraser has organized the book to help potters identify quickly the nature, causes and remedies for the multitude of difficulties which can arise during the production process. However, this book is much more than that, its detailed explanations also provide an excellent account of the technology involved in ceramics production and firing processes. Comprehensive and easy to use, it has already proved itself to be an enormously helpful source of reference for craft potters, teachers and students of ceramics, as well as those working in the ceramic industry. This book is divided into four sections: faults arising with clay or biscuit ware; from slipcasting processes; in glazing and glazed ware; and problems appearing after decoration. The second edition includes a new chapter on ceramic test methods and an expanded chapter on health and safety, including procedures on how to avoid problems. The second edition has been fully redesigned with color illustrations and the text has been revised, updated and expanded to reflect new developments.
