The vase was handmade on the potters wheel and fired in a raku kiln to create the final glaze color. Liquid clay was used to add texture to the piece to resemble stone.
The raku process is responsible for myriad of colors on the piece. While the piece was red hot, it was removed from the kiln and placed in a combustion chamber with leaves, newsprint, hay and sawdust where it ignites. After 30-60 seconds, a lid is placed on the chamber where the flames are starved for oxygen. It is in this moment where the magic happens and all the colors change to copper with hints of red to gold, purple, blue and green.
PLEASE NOTE: This piece is still porous, like a terra cotta flower pot, and not suitable for holding water. It is designed as a decorative vase for airplants or dried flowers.
