XXXL RAKU Fired Decorative Mushroom (Turquoises, Coppers, Whites - Crackled)
Can you really beat the look and feel of Raku fired pottery?
If you're not familiar with it, Raku is a process where I heat the pot up to nearly 2000 degrees, remove it while it's still red hot, and then put it into an oxygen reduction chamber full of consumables. This lets it have all sorts of blackening, crackling, and unpredictable color blasts.
Raku pottery is exciting and chaotic and oh so fun. Since a good number of pots crack in the process (thermal shock), the prices are higher for Raku than normal pots.
This mushroom is ginormous. If you haven't seen the quick video I made showing its Raku process, it's worth the watch 👉 VIEW THAT HERE. This video was viewed more than a million times across my various platforms!
Also, if you're interested, I'm making ten (and only ten) custom giant mushrooms where you pick the colors and style 👉 LEARN MORE HERE

This potter is a "seconds" meaning it has some small cosmetic shortcomings. This could include "s-cracks" near the base, scuffs near the base, small chips, etc. This particular piece developed a u-shaped crack at the base, which is far more visible from the bottom, but its functionality hasn't changed and it's difficult to see without close inspection when sitting upright. That being said, this particular piece should not be exposed to extreme temperatures because it could make the crack worse. I highly suggest you keep it as an indoor piece.
Each pot I make is created for the person meant to have it, and for nobody else. If a piece of pottery hasn't sold, it simply means the universe is still lining things up ❤️
This pottery is part of a huge collection hitting my shop over multiple pottery drops in May 2023. VIEW ALL THE POTS HERE

NOTE: I do my best to capture the true essence of all my pottery. Please note that every piece will look different depending on its surroundings and lighting, or on different screens.
All purchases are non-refundable. International orders may require duties and taxes, paid for by customer upon delivery. All my pottery is stoneware or porcealin, meaning it was fired at higher temperatures with more premium clay and glazes to make it truly durable. The only exception to this is Raku pottery which is fired at a lower temperature but still very strong. If you are buying any of my pottery as part of a collection or pottery drop, please note that it may take me 1-2 weeks to prepare the entire drop for shipment. Thank you for your patience.
