Questions involving unrealistic ideas


Would it be doable at all to use this type of wire in an armature and be safely fired?
Also unrelated but just an idea cooking in the back of my head… at an antique store recently I saw a flower vase that was made from various broken patterned ceramic pieces in a mosaic style… Is this something that is too risky? Bc the broken pieces made not be the same type of clay originally and being refired.

It looks to be the same wire kiln stilts are made of.

Nichrome wire is usually the wire used as the heating elements in a kiln. I have no idea about the mosaic idea. Dangerous though? I wouldn’t think so. Are you thinking it’s going to fly apart and damage other pieces in the kiln?
