I founded the ceramic art brand RAAQUU to make the magical world of raku ceramics more accessible to ceramic art enthusiasts all over the world. A raku specialist for more than 15 years, I make decorative ceramic home decor, vases and sculptures under the RAAQUU brand.
Raku ceramics are special because of the unpredictability of the raku firing technique. Raku firing is done in an extremely hot kiln, with the ceramic piece then removed while it is still red hot or molten. The iridescent rainbow colours come not from paint but from metal.
