Right side up trimming of a porcelain bowl.

There are potters that will consider this as cheating, but I never had a pottery bowl that once it was fired, call out: I’ve been trimmed right side up! 😁😁 so, enjoy, adopt the idea and let me know if you succeeded doing this.
It allows me to make sure the walls are even, since much of my decoration comes from translucency. Translucent porcelain , do not need shadows from thick and thin walls, unless it forms part of the design. I teach these techniques in my “Understanding Porcelain” class which is available either hands- on or online. See details here: https://www.porcelainbyantoinette.com/workshops.html#/Show more
