Collection: Wood Fired

Wood firing is one of the oldest and most primal ways to fire pottery. Some pots were fired train kilns in Plano, IL and Cedar Creek, TX. Others were fired in a catenary (arch) kiln with the addition of table salt in Dodgeville, WI. The idea behind wood firing is to put pots between a firebox and a chimney, letting the flame and ash create a natural glaze on the surface of the pots. The kiln is fed wood and fired for 20-48 hours and cooled for multiple days before opening.

Many of these pots are glazed only with flame, ash, and salt . For deeper pots like cups, glazes like celadon, clear, shino, and tenmoku were applied to the insides of the pots where wood ash was unlikely to travel. All wood fired pots are fully functional and food safe. 

Every pot in this collection is one of a kind. No restocks.
