Firewood Black Mud Tea Cup Firewood Beaker

Item: Wood-fired black mud teacup Capacity (cc): 90 Signed: Zhenlin Material: pottery, black soil Type of kiln: wood fired kiln Origin: Taiwan Firewood Introduction Wood burning is one of the traditional kiln-fired techniques. In order to avoid the wood ash produced by burning the pottery from adhering to the utensils in the early days, Gudu covered each work with a saggar cover to keep the glaze flawless. In contrast, today's wood-fired works are presented with three elements: earth, wood ash and fire marks. These elements are naturally generated and unpredictable. Compared with the predictability of traditional glazes, wood-fired firing is more elusive. https://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7852/52179760342_6e21822346_b.jpg
