Handthrown ceramic pottery raku outlet wavy altered bowl in crackle white glaze and and accents of bright turquoise

Raku tea bowl that was handthrown on the wheel and altered with a wavy edge then fired. Nice contrasts of bare clay body and accents of turquoise under white crackle white glaze. Perfect decoration for anyone who appreciates the uniqueness of raku.

Raku is a process by which pottery is fired at a low temperature and then moved while flaming hot to a closed container (in this case a lidded metal trash can) with filled with hay that ignites and causes a reaction with the glaze which creates unique patterns in texture and color.

Raku while stunning in decor and design, is not food safe, and it is porous. As such, it is for decorative purposes only. outlet
