RK-100 Black Metallic
Product Code:1MPRK100
Glazes designed to develop beautiful metallic lusters and crackle patterns when fired according to raku firing processes. They are suitable for the mysterious raku process using combustibles and varying firing methods to produce unique finishes. There are several methods and many nuances to raku firing – for our purposes here we define raku firing broadly as the processes of firing an earthenware body and glaze in a kiln, removing the ware from the kiln after it has reached proper temperature, placing it in a container of combustible material and enclosing the container to reduce the oxygen in the container. From 16th century firing methods in Japan to 20th century reduction methods of the West, Raku firing always reveals exciting and dramatic results. The color tile shown on this website should be used as an approximate guideline, only. The results may vary greatly due to different firing conditions.
