Rush, a good tenmoku on porcelain can be gorgeous !
It's black as it pools in recesses, but a brilliant luminescent
brown on rims and edges.
Subtle, but great.

Ron,
Is there really any advantage to using porcelain if you use
tenmoku?...I can see it if there is a liner glaze that shows porcelain...but
for pieces covered with tenmoku??..
PAX,
Rush
