RAKU is a unique Japanese firing technique celebrated for its distinct finish and texture. This method emphasizes spontaneity and creativity, allowing artists to explore various materials and glazes, ultimately producing one-of-a-kind pottery. Each Raku piece embodies the unpredictable nature of the firing process, revealing the artist's craftsmanship and unique vision.
