Here is a photo of the kiln that the tiles were fired in. Each tile has to have two firings - a bisque, which transforms the clay into a hard tile (stone) and then a second one where I paint a glaze (like putting powdered glass onto the surface of the tile) and then it comes out shiny!
Above: The tiles are sitting in the kiln on shelves
Above and below: Here are the tiles as they have come out of the kiln on each shelf
