Carbon-Injected Wood-Fired Teapot

Wood firing is an ancient and refined ceramic technique, and "Carbon-Injected Wood Firing" elevates this tradition to a unique craft. The success of each piece relies on the natural harmony between "clay, fire, wood, and kiln," alongside the artist's ultimate challenge. • Unique Craftsmanship Moment: When the kiln reaches temperatures above 1200°C and the clay body is in a semi-molten state, the artist opens the kiln and directly introduces raw charcoal. The charcoal, instead of burning, melts and adheres tightly to the surface of the piece, embodying the essence of "carbon injection." • Charm of an Underwater Wreck: Carbon-injected wood-fired pottery imparts a unique aesthetic—stable, restrained, and marked by time. It is often described as possessing the rustic and robust beauty of an **"underwater shipwreck."** • Softening Water Quality: Beyond the artistic value of fire marks and ash glaze, the natural carbon adhesion in carbon-injected wood-fired pieces softens the water, making tea taste smoother and sweeter. 🌕 Artwork | Carbon-Injected Wood-Fired Teapot | Ref.

The glaze color, ash deposits, and textures of each piece will vary, which is the natural charm and uniqueness of wood-fired pottery. 🌿 Dimensions are measured by hand. There may be an error of approximately 0.5-1 cm, which is within the normal range. 🌿 Minor production marks may be visible during the handcrafting process, which are natural expressions of handmade items. 🌿 Ash glaze, mineral deposits, or a rough glaze texture are natural phenomena during wood firing, not defects. 🌿 Product photos may vary due to different lighting conditions. The actual color should be based on the physical product.
