"In geology, a vein is a distinct sheetlike body of crystallized minerals within a rock. Veins form when mineral constituents carried by an aqueous solution within the rock mass are deposited through precipitation. The hydraulic flow involved is usually due to hydrothermal circulation."
Source: Wikipedia. Knowledge is power.
The vein is made with dried chunks of porcelain which I knew would pick up the gold glaze better than the darker soldate clay that makes up the body of the vase. While the pot was leather hard I wiped the body of the vase with a damp sponge. This wipes back some of the clay leaving the rougher grog behind, giving it a more stone like finish.
This vase measures approx 5" X 5"
