This box is wheel thrown and hand carved by Diann Adams of Massillon, Ohio. This beautiful vessel gets its patina by way of a Raku firing process. The bisqued piece is glazed with special Raku glazes that have copper oxide and silver nitrate in their mix and placed in a Raku kiln and fired to 1850 degrees. It is taken out of the kiln while flaming hot and placed in a container with combustables. The flames lick the glaze causing flashes of color. It is then smothered by covering it up and the reduction process of the firing occures creating other combinations of colors.
This box can hold your favorite treasures. It is perfect for that special someone in your life.
Raku is not waterproof nor foodsafe.
Measures approximately 4.5"h x 5.5"w.
