Full description
Turquoise/copper glazed raku bottle, unglazed areas smoked black. Height 15cm width 11cm.
A classically shaped raku bottle decorated with a copper turquoise glaze showing beautiful variegated colours. The vase has black unglazed areas to emphasise the balance of the piece.
This lovely bottle is hand thrown on a wheel, fired once and then glazed. The raku process then involves plunging the hot (1000oC!) glazed pots into sawdust. This combustion process gives each pot a unique character with luster and crackle effects. The clay body starts off white but unglazed areas are turned black by the smoke, these black areas are designed to accentuate the form and contrast with the bright colours of the glaze.
So with each pot you can be assured of a beautiful one-off piece as a special gift or just a treat for yourself.
