Ceramic bowl in raku pottery blue inside, white and black outside, ideal for beach house, very elegant and minimal. Geometric style for your modern home.

Ceramic bowl in semi-refractory clay hand decorated with the Raku technique. It is a bowl in a type of clay very shock resistant. It is great for everyday use. Ideal for its size and shape as soap dish, ashtrays,candy bowl, and so on.
It's a unique and unrepeatable piece. I produced personally by myself, where I live, Bassano del Grappa, a town famous for its pottery tradition in craftsmanship. It is a bowl very elegant and stylish, ideal for a modern home, but also more traditional.
The raku pottery originated in Japan in the sixteenth century,it is known for its uniqueness and preciousness.

PROCESSING:
Craqueleur that is formed during the processing is the decorative feature of this technique ceramic and can never be replicated in an identical manner between one object and another, for this the Raku ceramic is unique and very valuable. To decorate this bowl I sprayed with the airbrush enamel turquoise and blue, to obtain an intermediate shade between the two colors. The outside instead I obtained by immersing the bowl in the intense blue color. Then I put it in the oven at 940°C, leaving the furnace was covered by sawdust for a few minutes and immersed in cold water to complete the reduction phase.

STORAGE AND CLEANING:
Even if it is a type of ceramic very durable, this is always an handmade object, so I do not recommend the dishwasher and the microwave. Detergents instead be used as well.
