I fire my pots exclusively in the western style of the 16th century Japanese firing technique known as Raku – a type of pottery traditionally used in Japanese tea ceremonies.

The elegant forms show a variation of colours that are controlled by the atmospheric conditions in the firing process; this is comparable to the earth’s different layers in its atmosphere that, for instance, create the beautiful spectrum of colour in the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights.
