Raku
                                

    Made of clay and hand formed on the pottery wheel in the “raku” process, the wares are loaded into the kiln and fired quickly. Once the firing is complete the pieces are immediatelycarefully removed from the hot kiln, with the   glaze still molten. The pieces are then placed in a container with  sawdust, pine needles, or paper.  The reaction with the glaze  produces the exciting results. No two pieces ever come out exactly alike. Raku ware is decorative and will not hold water, and should be kept out of direct sunlight to preserve the glaze. Enjoy!
