This ash was burned with map gas,brush with a wire rotary brush in a drill, then burned again and brushed again. It appears as if it were sand blasted. Brushed with India ink. I used turquoise blue Pearl-Ex mixed into Johnson paste wax it was rubbed into the open pores and I let it dry for three days. I used 0000# steel wool to buff the wax off the raised sections of the ash leaving it in the open pores. The blue radiates or disappears depending on the light. The bowl is about 15" wid and 4" deep.
