A hand-made vase, featuring a unique combination of colors and designs. The vase was created using Standard Clay Company's Raku clay body. It was then fired and fumed with copper wire in a an extremely hot kiln. After heating to the appropriate temperature, the vase was removed from the kiln and placed in a barrel of combustible materials, where it was set on fire, resulting in the chemical reactions that cause the fascinating and beautiful combinations of colors and designs on the surface of the vase.
Because of the nature of the firing process, this vase is decorative only. It is not food safe and is not suitable for flowers.
All pieces offered on this website are hand-made by one artist who lives and works in Alexandria, Virgina. All items purchased support a female owned small business.
