Meteor Lamp | OJO ceramics | Home Pottery Studio Vlog | Crazy Glaze

Hey! In this video I will show you how I made the Meteor lamp! It was a secret project (for my Instagram friends he-he). I came up with this idea back in the summer when it was not always sunny outside, but warm.
As usual, I didn't need a potter's wheel to create this lamp. I used the hand-building technique.
In this video, I also added a bit of what happens during the creation of the project - going to the store, assembling the electrical part inside the clay lamp and using epoxy with fired clay.

How did you get the glaze that texture, I love it but don’t know what makes it rough and organic looking like yours. Awesome video!

Hey! I have followed you on Instagram for awhile and didn’t realize you had a YouTube channel! So cool to see you on here too! I was wondering if would be willing to say what pieces you are using for the electrical?
