Vases
Vases are wonderful because you can make so many different shapes and sizes, different curvatures and necks! The majority of vases I have been creating lately are Raku fired and meant for decoration only, as they are porous and cannot contain water or food. Raku firing produces amazing colors from a crackle white that makes a piece look antique-like to brilliant coppers and turquoise colors. High Fired vases are great for either decoration or for holding flowers in them, as this type of firing allows the piece to safely hold water.
