?”Raku pottery is generally bisque fired, then glazed and gone back to the kiln, eliminated when red hot and buried in sawdust to get the blackened result. It is a primitive yet very advanced type of pottery.In good vintage condition.9 “H 5 1/2″H FICTIION: Jane Ross was”a
Raku snob. All
those control freak potters amused her, fastidiously painting their managed little themes on their items. She, on the other hand tossed and splashed and dripped her glazes, placed them in the kiln to let the magic happen, then finally threw the pot into a sawdust bin for the finale.
