Epsom Salt Surface Experiment

I mixed Epsom salt into slip and used it to create these raised lines on the surface.

I’ve tested this technique before on smaller pieces, but this is the first time I’m trying it on larger forms. I made these bowls for myself — partly as an experiment, partly just to explore the surface. I really like how they look in their raw state.

Now I’m unsure what kind of glaze to use. Something that highlights the texture? Or something more subtle and soft? I haven’t decided yet. Let’s see what they become after firing.
