Special Re-Firing Glaze Technique Wood-fired Tea Bowls (Chawan) #4
Unique surface and color variation may be achieved by loading pieces that have been glazed and high-fired in a gas kiln. When re-fired below the fire grate in the fire box of a boury box style kiln, already fired glaze ware will re-melt and be covered with embers from the firing. The embers will roughen the texture and create varying micro-atmospheric effects to which some glazes respond favorably and produce a wide range of color response.
