Visiting sacred spaces in Portugal, Spain, and Italy, Mary was inspired by the crossover of astrology and religion in ancient architecture. Throughout her career, she utilized astrological symbols in her installations in religious spaces and as decoration on vessels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIridescent Glaze\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eMany consider the Iridescent glaze to be Pewabic's most important contribution to ceramic art. Through trial, error, and sheer persistence, Mary Chase Perry Stratton developed her first successful Iridescent glaze in 1906. Establishing the formula and stabilizing the firing process took another three years. Today our Iridescent pieces are fired somewhat similarly, though with safer materials. It requires a third firing and a process called fuming, when vegetable oil is injected into the kiln to create the extraordinary one-of-a-kind effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e4” x 4”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eHandcrafted in Detroit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eIndividually hand-pressed in our own stoneware and glazed by Pewabic artisans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003ePewabic logo stamped on back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eSlight variations in glaze and firing results ensure each handcrafted Pewabic piece is one of a kind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eCheck out the other tiles in the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pewabic.shop\/collections\/zodiac-collection\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eZodiac Collection\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAlso available in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pewabic.shop\/products\/pisces-zodiac-tile\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eOcean\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAvailable in Blush Iridescent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pewabic Pottery","offers":[{"title":"Blush","offer_id":44186022445110,"sku":"24350","price":64.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0115\/0917\/0235\/files\/EEBerger_Pewabic_Oct25_032_web.jpg?v=1762181087","url":"https:\/\/www.pewabic.shop\/en-ca\/products\/pisces-zodiac-tile-iridescent","provider":"Pewabic Pottery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
