The simple shape of the tall vase is broken up by a round vase opening on the top of the object. The vase is watertight, approx. 28 cm high and approx. 12 cm x 9,5 cm wide. The extremely interesting and unique surface of this unique piece is created by applying two different engobes plus a transparent glaze and subsequent raku firing. This vase is unique in its appearance and feel; the raku process makes the end result largely unpredictable. Gundula Sommerer produces this vase in small series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProduction process:\u003c\/strong\u003e This ceramic vase made of clay is handmade using the slab technique. It is coated with two different engobes, which are low-viscosity clay mineral masses used for coloring or coating ceramic products, and then covered with a transparent glaze. The first firing takes place in an electric kiln at 920°C, the second firing is a raku firing in a gas kiln at 1020°C. After cooling down to 800°C, the vase is reduced in a vessel with sawdust while still glowing. This process step creates the beautiful cracks and discolorations in the surfaces. After firing, the pieces are cleaned and made watertight using a special process so that they can be used as a vase.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gundula Sommerer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56227126608245,"sku":"12540184","price":220.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/8908\/8275\/files\/202511GundulaSommerer-11.jpg?v=1763378618","url":"https:\/\/haptik.de\/en\/products\/gundula-sommerer-raku-vase-turquoise-high-gs184","provider":"haptik - Galerie für Gebrauchskunst","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
