Wood firing means using wood as the fuel source to heat a pottery kiln. The wood ash produces unique glaze effects, from runs, to crystal formation, to color changes. Look for asymmetry on the surface of these pieces. Those effects-- which are largely out of the potter’s control—are, to us, worth the effort it takes to fire this way. It also honors an ancient practice that began over 20 thousand years ago.
