Description

Ceramic raku fired single small standing puffin with full colour slip decoration, the same detail as a large puffin.
Size: 7cm High
These pictures are a guide to how they, in fact I now have three current models with three different heads so i can mix & match to give many combinations and all differ very slightly from each other the crazing will differ with each animal due to the unique nature of Raku.
Raku is a rapid firing technique, adapted from an ancient Japanese firing. A small group of approx 15 pieces are placed in a small gas fired kiln and fired up to around 1,000° c, each piece is then individually taken out of the kiln red hot and placed in a bin of sawdust & wood shavings which instantly combust, the actual finish is then down to careful timing, longer in the air will give bigger heavier crazing, covering quickly leaves areas with no crazing but the crazing itself is very random and this gives each piece its own character, all work is then completely covered in the sawdust and left overnight to cool before being cleaned.
RAKU IS NOT FROST PROOF SO NOT SUITABLE FOR KEEPING OUTDOORS
