Artist: Glazed & Amazed
Medium: Raku
Siamese Kitten
This Kitten is finished with a siamese look with the unglazed areas smoked grey/black
Height is 16cm or 6 1/2"
This picture is a general picture of this item, the crazing will differ with each animal due to the unique nature of Raku.
Raku is a firing technique, adapted from an ancient Japanese firing. After glazing a small group of items are placed in a small gas fired kiln and fired up to around 100 degree's centigrade, each piece is then taken out of the kiln red hot and placed in a bin of sawdust, the finish is then down to careful timing, more air will give bigger heavier crazing, covering with the sawdust quickly will give copper lustre on the turquoise pieces, all work is covered in the sawdust and left overnight to cool before being cleaned.
RAKU IS NOT FROST PROOF SO NOT SUITABLE FOR KEEPING OUTDOORS
As I make these myself please ask about stock if it is showing as out of stock, I am always making more but sometimes my gallery customers get to it before I have the chance to make it available to you, I can always make you one specially, PLEASE ASK.
As there are rare occasions when I do run out before changing the website stock PLEASE LET ME KNOW OR PHONE TO ASK IF IT IS AN URGENT PRESENT
