Lidded Box Project

Students will create a lidded slab box to practice clay techniques like slab building and glazing. They will choose a theme for their box, design it with sketches, and cut templates to specific dimensions. Students will score and slip the slabs together, add decorations or carvings, and ensure the lid fits before letting the box dry and glazing it after bisque firing. The finished box must have four sides, a removable lid, additions or carvings on all sides, and unity in the chosen theme.
