Item details

My small moongazing hare is a simple but elegant design, one of the first pieces i ever made it comes in a rich turquoise copper glaze. It is raku fired and the turquoise can differ in shade & quantity of lustre from one piece to the next, making each one unique

Size: 13cm High

These pictures are general and show the variation and how they look. The crazing differs on each piece due to the way raku firing produces random effects.

Raku is a rapid firing technique, adapted from an ancient Japanese firing. A small group of approx 15 pieces are placed in a small gas fired kiln and fired up to around 1,000° c, each piece is then individually taken out of the kiln red hot and placed in a bin of sawdust & wood shavings which instantly combust, the actual finish is then down to careful timing, longer in the air will give bigger heavier crazing, covering quickly leaves areas with no crazing but the crazing itself is very random and this gives each piece its own character, all work is then completely covered in the sawdust and left overnight to cool before being cleaned.

RAKU IS NOT FROST PROOF SO NOT SUITABLE FOR KEEPING OUTDOORS
