The Great Dragon Lamps

They are the largest I've made, just shy of 2 feet long and are a feat of engineering.  There is a system to lower them into the kiln without breaking. And they pretty much have to just sit in place while glazing.


Raw clay is about 20#, finished product with glaze come close to 25#.  Right now they range from $300 to $500, but the half size is $150- $200.  I don't bring the massive dragons to all shows; usually only indoor places where I know the display will be stable.
