The Skyline Kiln, wood-fire kiln at Pincus Pottery Studio,
was successfully fired in Feb 2011, marking our 16th firing,
and the next firing is planned for the 3rd week in April. We
continue to get a high percentage of good pots out of the
kiln, including very nice coloring on the porcelain cups and
bowls, but as always there is much to explore going forward.

of the kiln and pottery.
