Raku vase
A stunning handthrown raku vase by Chris Hawkins.
Each of Chris’s pots has a unique pattern within the glaze. Raku is a chance occurrence process where the piece is rapidly fired to around 1000c and then placed in a container of wood shavings which rapidly combust. The heat and flames react with the clay and glaze, drawing the metal within the glaze up to the surface and creating the stunning iridescent colours seen in Chris’s work.
Raku fired copper matt bottle.
