One of the things that I love about pottery is the magic of raku.
It is a real game changer. The kinds of effects you can get from this process are unlike those you can get from conventional firing techniques. You can learn more about how we fire our raku pottery here!
As an added bonus, the effects are unique and one of a kind to each piece. While you may be able to reproduce a general overall effect, you can not reproduce identical pieces. You can click on any of the titles of these raku pottery vases for more information
The patterns of the cracking on the glaze is very magical and intrigues me.
I find that using certain reduction materials can cause some very interesting multi-coloured textural effects.
This vase has many things going on! Hues of red, purple and blue that almost give this vase a landscape quality!

Which of these raku pottery vases is your favourite?
They are always lovely but today the only word is ‘exquisite’! Chrsi
The last vase is my favorite-I love the colors!
They are all gorgeous. Love the last one!
Fractal Magic has me imagining a hazy view out of a window after a Spring shower. Beautiful!
A Horse With No Name is my favourite here. But it gives off vibes to me that instantly scream Hades/Persephone. No idea why. Guess that is just how my brain works. Beautiful vases though.
