Raku Pottery
View
this Collection . . .
Raku pottery is fired to red hot temperatures, then taken out of the kiln and put into a chamber filled with combustible materials. The chamber is then covered to cause a reduction atmosphere which matures the glaze. The pot is then drenched in cold water to preserve the crackle and irridescent glazes.
