Looks all new to me...especially the crackling of the celadon.

thanlks Peter,
I thought it was a good piece because the color was not too dull or too bright and because the crackling. I thought it was not fabricated but all natural. So I was mistaken.
I want to know more about celadon but I do not know where to start. I find it very difficult.
what do you advise me?
greetings, rec

Crackling can be easily created in an electric or gas fired kiln by opening the door early during the cooling process. You will hear ping, ping, ping... inside when the items develop crackles one by one.  :-)
