Obvara raku vase
–
1 in stock
The obvara raku process involves dipping the glowing hot piece into a fermented mixture similar to a sourdough starter – to create these organic sepia-toned variations.
Raku process photos by Patrick Griffith. The plaster-like texturing is inspired by a workshop with Akira Satake.
Made by hand in Denver, CO with BMX from Rocky Mountain Clay. Raku firing provides beautiful variation, but not a water-tight or food-safe finish. These pieces can hold water similar to a terra-cotta flower pot, with some moisture seeping out the base. Recommended for dry arrangements, or with a tray underneath.
