There are "fire marks" naturally left by the firewood directly on the body, as well as the ashes that naturally fall after the firewood is burned, making the color of the work warm and richly varied, a state that cannot be achieved by electric kilns and gas kilns. Compared with ordinary electric kilns and gas kilns, wood burning takes about 8 to 10 days from rowing (stacking) kilns, igniting and burning to sealing the kiln, and then cooling down. In addition, the pressure of the wood-burning kiln is very high, as well as factors such as climate humidity, dryness of the wood, artificial speed of adding firewood, and kiln discharge position... which may lead to the success or failure of the work, and the damage rate is also high. Experienced wood-burning writers will consider the speed of the airflow throughout the kiln when discharging the kiln. They must plan from how to discharge the works of different sizes, how to estimate the rise of the fire path, how to add firewood and carbon, and the degree of burning heat. mind. Every process requires full concentration so that perfect wood-fired works can be presented. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50056938642_a49dc61e15_b.jpg **Shino Glaze**is the glaze color that our studio specializes in. Shino ware was developed by Japanese potters in order to make something similar to Chinese white porcelain and blue and white porcelain, but with the creativity of Mino potters, pottery unique to Japan was developed. Shino Glaze uses extensive use of feldspar glaze to create a light snow-like glaze color on the objects, which is as thick and warm as jade. The edges of the glaze show a beautiful fiery red change, as well as orange peel-like Brown eyes. The glaze color is rich in changes and cannot be deliberately controlled by humans, but it also reflects the traces of the author's handiwork everywhere. This kind of glaze color that naturally presents a beautiful artistic conception is also highly praised by tea drinkers. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49936762696_20cb036434_b.jpg **Precautions** 1.
