Refiring

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows if I can refire a piece that has already been glazed and fired? I had two different clays in one load. One clay was cone 5 the other was cone 4-6. I usually do the 4-6 at 6 and love the results. But since I had the other that can only be fired to 5 I thought I could do the 4-6 with the 5. It turned out ok but the glaze was alot glossier than when I fire it to cone 6 and the clay did not get as dark as when I do it a cone 6. I'd like to put it back in the kiln with my next cone 6 load and was wondering if it would come out as if I had fired it to cone 6 in the first place.

Thanks Sandi

I forgot to mention the glaze is rated cone 4-6.

Sandi, nothing to lose by refiring. Give it a shot, it won't hurt anything!

Hi Sandi, Yes you can refire your glazed pieces. They will not be the same as once fired but you may be surprized and delighted. The only way to know is to try it.
