About Crackle Glaze:

Crackle glaze, also known as crazing or craquelure, is a traditional glazing technique that creates a network of fine cracks across the surface. This distinctive pattern occurs when the glaze and clay body cool at different rates during firing, creating beautiful web-like patterns that are unique to each pot. Over time, the cracks may develop subtle color variations, adding character and depth to the pot's appearance.
