Ever since discovering 'sig' through my classes with Sandi Pierantozzi (initially) and Jimmy Clark, I have been collecting and testing different terra sigillata recipes and their firing range. 90% of my clay beads are finished with terra sigillata and fired anywhere from cone 4 (electric) to cone 10 (in a gas kiln).
