Three elemental forms rise in quiet balance—each sphere marbled with smoke, mineral, and fire. This horsehair raku cairn infused with terra sigilata and minerals, evokes ancient way finding markers and the meditative rhythm of stacked stones. The surfaces shimmer with a soft pearl luster, revealing subtle blues, greens, and earthy grays beneath a veil of carbon trails. Crackled textures and vein-like patterns speak of transformation—of heat and the alchemy of clay. A tactile meditation on grounding and ascent, this piece invites stillness, reflection, and a sense of place.
A rustic yet refined addition to any fine art collection or nature-inspired interior.

Horsehair raku ceramic blue luster vase .
The torn, petal-like edges create a sculptural silhouette, while the surface reveals a distinctive interplay of smoke and luster. Shades of blue, violet, and subtle gold emerge through the raku firing process, where horsehair and flame leave permanent traces across the ceramic body. The piece embodies the tension between control and unpredictability inherent in raku: fractured yet balanced, delicate yet enduring. The surface bears the permanent traces of fire and horsehair, transforming rupture into bloom.
The vase measure approximately: 6. 5” tall x 6.5” wide.

This horsehair raku vessel is created using a unique firing process. The piece is hand built from coils. The terra sigillata mixed with minerals applied in a few coats to bone dry clay and then burnished creating very smooth surface. The vessel is bisque fired and then fired again at raku kiln. it pulled from the kiln while glowing red hot. Horsehair were placed on the surface, igniting and leaving black carbon designs on the surface. The mineral gives a luster and subtle sheen that emanates from within the clay. The smoke initiates a chemical process pulling vibrant iridescent gold, green and purple-like luster to the surface. No two pieces of Raku will ever be alike.
Dimensions: 7.5“diameter by 4. 5” tall.

A totem born of fire and smoke—rugged, organic, and alive with iridescent luster. The surface is prepared with terra sigillata infused with minerals. At its most incandescent—pulled red-hot from the kiln—horsehair is laid across the ceramic body, igniting on contact and leaving smoky black carbon trails that dance across the form like ancient markings. The minerals respond to the heat and smoke, drawing forth a subtle, iridescent sheen—a emerald pearl-like luster that seems to rise from within the clay itself.
Dimensions: 11.5″ tall x 9″ wide x 3.5″ deep.

This vase was thrown on the wheel. Terra sigillata coats with minerals were applied to dry earthware. The surface was burnished. After the vessel went through first fire, a special resists slip with grog and a thin layer of glaze were applied to the piece on outside surface. The lines were scores through the slip. After raku firing and smoking, the surface was scraped off from the slip exposing beautiful black lines created by smoke. The shiny smooth surface laminates green and bronze pearl colors created by various mineral applications.
Dimensions: 6.5” in diameter by 4″ tall.
Please note: The ceramics and jewelry photography is done with different lighting and backgrounds that might slightly effect the color of the piece.

This raku sculpture is one of my new underwater life forms. I gather some of my inspiration from underwater creatures and life forms. It reflects my relationship with natural forms.
The raku ceramic decayed underwater life sculpture is loosely based on the form of the sea turtle skeleton. It does not attempt to be an exact replica. The contrast between the white crackled outside surface and matte-crusted hand-carved highly textured inside cavities emphasizes the organic nature of the piece. The design captures the natural fluidity and movement.
This shell is 8” long and 5″ wide.
