Red Turtle

Original turtle in Raku ceramic, glazed sandstone with a shiny, red enamel, and a smoky finish for the parts in black. A discrete hole under the shell was made to evacuate air.

 The crackled effect and the mat black are achieved using a raku cooking process, an ancient Japanese technique used for tea ceremonies, which dates back to the 15th century. (See details on the "ABOUT" page).

All my pieces are handcrafted in France, made in my ceramic workshop Le raku de Sylvie which is located in the Atlantic Pyrenees near Pau.

Non contractual photo. As all of my pieces are handmade, the size may vary slightly depending on the shape of each. Each Raku piece is unique, and could have more or less cracks, and the intensity of the cracks may vary.

Many of these pieces are at the workshop and can be slighty different. If you would like to order this piece, I can send a picture of the piece that you will receive.

All orders can be filled within 20 to 30 days. Do not hesitate ! Please contact me to discuss.
