What a great looking piece...it just keeps getting better and better. I've built larger slab work with this clay, and it was tricky. I could get this clay with grog, but it left to much grit on the surface, and with translucent glazes, you could sometimes see it. I sometimes would wedge fine white sand into it to add strength and that was better. Seems to me you're pulling out all the stops to get this one through the process.....my feeling is that the kiln gods and goddesses are with you. Beautiful piece.....
