The Magic and Alchemy of In-Glaze Luster

Recording of workshop held at Lisa Orr's Studios in October 2026.

Learn how to work with reduction fired in glaze lusters.

Note- in glaze lusters require a reduction cooling or secondary lower temperature reduction firing to develop their magic. Alcohol reduction in an electric kiln is demonstrated during the workshop. Multiple methods of reduction firing including using a traditional gas kiln or a portable raku kiln are discussed. 

Workshop description:

Lisa discusses the chemistry of luster glazes, multiple methods of post fire reduction and how she approaches glaze testing and development. She shares her results from extensive testing and experimentation. 

Lisa’s process involves an initial firing of the in-glaze luster to cone 6 in an electric kiln, followed by a secondary alcohol-drip reduction. Watch as in person attendees apply luster glazes, load the reduction firing, and undoubtedly see how incredibly variable these glazes are.
