| After the initial biscuit firing, all tableware is glazed by hand, before the glost firing. |
| This glost kiln produces combination of flatware and hollow-ware fired on refractory batts. |
| The company had one main manufacturing issue, which was to improve the quality of glost pieces. |
| The kiln has a through draft, the flames from the furnace entering the glost oven. |
| The desired glost temperature and the possibility of cation release from the glaze affects the degree of usefulness of lead oxide as a flux. |
