Multi-color swirlware/agateware mugs - Throwing the cylinders

This is how I make the most of the colored clay, I basically add the color as a veneer rather than mixing it through the ball of clay. This way each mug can be different and I can play with the number of colors and their arrangement to get what I like best. I made 2.5 kilograms (about 5 lbs) of colored clay in 5 colors, using 50g of mason stain in each. I used cone 10 porcelain for the colored clay and the white buffer coils, My stoneware is fired to cone 6. Using cone 10 porcelain hasn't been a problem when fired to cone 6 in the past when it is used as a veneer like this.
