{Ceramics 2} Focus/Closure for Tuesday, 9/17

{Ceramics 2}

Focus/Closure:

Raku:  A firing process in which porous or grogged ware is taken from the kiln when red hot (1470-1830 degrees F).  The ware is immediately placed in water or combustible material for reduction.

As you are working on your tile and 2 pots for your sgraffito project, make sure to be making pots, tiles, boxes, etc. for our Raku firing in mid October.
