All my pieces are individually wheel thrown. They're either glaze fired at cone 6 or raku fired.
The porcelain vessel is underglaze painted and hand painted mugs are fired multiple times and accented with 22 ct gold or mother of pearl luster. The coffee pour overs and mugs are imprinted with hand-carved stamps while the outside has been left unglazed to give an organic look. The raku vase made in the traditional Japanese method has been bisque fired, glazed and removed from an 1820 degree kiln while red hot. It was then placed into containers with combustibles/newspapers and covered where reduction takes place. I fire them one at a time to get an even fire all around.
