Hot Pots Wood-fired Pottery
I work with kilns of different shapes and sizes. |
| Anagama-fired Pots |
| My 'anagama' is fired up around 1250c°. Each firing requires very slow continuous heating up and cooling down. Depending on the weather, one firing usually takes 6 - 8 days and whole process may take over 2 weeks from start to finish. 'Anagama' fired pots are sturdy enough to be left outdoors in frosty winter. |

| Raku Tea Bowls |
| 'Raku' was invented over 400 years ago in feudal Japan. It was specifically designed to make rustic tea bowls. Tea bowls are fired at around 950c° in my smaller kiln. Firing in a small 'raku' kiln at this low temperature gives delightful softness to the glazes. |
