Raku



Raku is a method of firing pieces that have been previously biscuit fired at no more than 1000 c, glazed with low-fired glazes, rapidly heated in a Raku kiln until the glaze melts and then removed from the kiln whilst still red hot.

The pots are then cooled rapidly by either sprinkling with water or placed in a sawdust bin to reduce. Each piece is unique.
