i emailed you a long time ago admiring your emerald chess set. Found the picture I saved and am enjoying it again.
So I joined this livejournal thing just so I could comment. I really like your chess set.
I took some ceramics classes in college years ago and loved it. But never managed to get a studio of any sort set up for myself. I used to have a backyard where I would try firing stuff in open firepits - really crude stuff...
I made a chess set out of "dryer lint clay" found the recipe online somewhere - it's a pretty neat set. Haven't made a chessboard yet.
Is your chessboard made from one big slab or individual tiles?
I wonder about trying to fire something like that in a barbeque...it would be really uneven heat, but it might work okay right?
