WHAT 'LA RAKU POTTERY: Raku means "joy to the day," living in harmony with the things and people. This ceramic technology has its origins in Japan in the sixteenth century, where it was exclusively reserved for the tea ceremony. Newly renovated and reinvented in the West arrives in the early '60s. In this technique, earth, fire and water are the main protagonists, with their primordial values \u200b\u200brelated to the extraction of man in accordance with the Raku technique, the pieces taken from the oven is still hot are immediately placed in metal containers filled with various types of fuel (sawdust, straw, dry leaves, etc.) and immediately covered, in order to achieve a significant reduction due to lack of oxygen, creating luster and reflections caused by the chemical reaction of metal oxides present in the glazes on the particular type of fire clay used and the effect of splitting the final part of the cycle is to immerse the object in water to stop the reduction. Each piece is unique. The Raku does not give consistent results and it follows that every object will always be a unique and unrepeatable in its effects and in its coloring.
