Large Raku Hare

from £300.00

Handcrafted Raku Hares, each with their own unique crackled pattern, no two will be the same, making them a one of a kind piece of art for your home.

Some Hares will feature decorative Kintsugi, a Japanese tradition, which represents "a reminder to stay optimistic and to celebrate the flaws and missteps of life."

Raku is a rapid firing technique, adapted from an ancient Japanese firing. A small group of approx 15 pieces are placed in a small gas fired kiln and fired up to around 1,000° c, each piece is then individually taken out of the kiln red hot and placed in a bin of sawdust & wood shavings which instantly combust, the actual finish is then down to careful timing, longer in the air will give bigger heavier crazing, covering quickly leaves areas with no crazing but the crazing itself is very random and this gives each piece its own character, all work is then completely covered in the sawdust and left overnight to cool before being cleaned.
