Natural ash glaze
Natural ash glaze occurs in a wood fired kiln when ash particles carried around the kiln by the hot air and flames land and melt on the pots, often creating dramatic colour variations on their surfaces depending on their position in the kiln.

in the large, quiet pots of Shikamaru Takeshita one can see the silhouettes of big-bellied African water carriers and Japan’s own Jōmon pottery.His square-lipped pouring bowls are refined with a touch that belies the coarseness of his clay, while blushing wood-fired porcelain bottles shimmer with pink and purple pearlescence.
