Raku Vase, July 2006

Wheel thrown white stoneware
Matte raku glaze
Masked the design with tape, then glazed, removed tape, and fired. The masked areas were turned black from the smoke in the reduction chamber.

12.5 in h x 7 in w

Thank you for the compliment. With raku, the fire makes most of the decisions about the colors! It's like Christmas when you pull it out and see it for the first time. You never know what you are going to get. The main things that I can control are the black masked lines and the textured surface. The glaze that I use gets amazing flashes of color when it is fired.

Thank you! I threw this on July 4th. I had a 3 day weekend and was excited to spend some time experimenting in my studio. I had been throwing for about 4 months and was trying new techniques. This was one I read in a magazine. I threw 2 cylinders, and then fused them together while they were still wet. Once they were fused, I shaped the form. I finally masked, glazed and fired it about a week ago.

Wow the smoke reduction thing worked really well! I dig the form too. Really good job.
Thanks!
