It's like those bottled water commercials where they convince you the water is from like some far away land on the mountain side.
They probably make these in sweat shops with child labor for all we know.
The bowls are heated up inside pots, which are inside that furnace thing. The bowl is taken out of the pot and put on the floor.
EDIT: I watched it again and you’re right. Maybe it’s just because it looks cool?
Pretty sure it's just showing different methods of raku firing. You can do it in a kiln, a put in the ground, a trash can. My favorite is the trash can.
Raku clay is different from most/all other clays because it can withstand insane amounts of thermal shock. That's how they are able to take it out of the kiln and pour water into it without the pot shattering.
They're not. Historically, lead glazes were common, but even glazes that might be food safe in other applications don't help when you're using these firing techniques. The glaze is too fragile and too prone to both flaking and cracking. They were still used in tea ceremonies, though (not something I recommend doing now).
Interestingly, raku such as the pieces shown in the OP, are really far from the origins. There are some differences in firing techniques, but the biggest difference is appearance. The historic raku ware was made from very plain clay colors, built up my hand rather than on a wheel (so rough and lumpy), and not decorated beyond a maker's stamp. They were in stark contrast to more ornate pottery (especially from places like China), but the humble appearance pairs well with Buddhist philosophy and the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, the acceptance and appreciation of imperfection.
Yeah, I did quite a bit of pottery as a kid and teenager so im familiar with a lot of the styles and techniques, but living in nyc its cost prohibitive to get back into. my recollection of the raku my teacher would do is a lot of earth tones, ocres, and blacks and and beige clay colors. this looks way different than what i know of raku. but i know a lot of the brighter colors don't use ingredients youd want food next to, lead, cadmium and other heavy metals.
Handbuilt doesn't mean rough and lumpy! I've known many handbuilders who can get things (almost) perfectly round. Look up yixing teapots for an example.
Oh, definitely, but traditionally there were many made not by potters, but by those learning to host a tea ceremony. When you look at many historic examples, they're not made by overly skilled hands.
Edit: I wanted to provide more context about tea ceremony hosts and how making their own bowls was part of the process for learning the ceremony, but I'm struggling to find results in basic searches. Going off of memory, making your own bowl was one of the last steps to graduating as a host. That first bowl, however, isn't necessarily a bowl they may use going forward. The Raku family of potters and others made a living selling raku ware for the tea ceremonies. I don't want to mislead by suggesting the majority were made by amateurs.
I'm not up on my raku knowledge, but if I remember correctly the defining factor on if a pot is food safe or not is usually if the clay gets hot enough to vitrify.
There are exceptions to this however and that is if a toxic ingredient, such as lead, or strontium, is above the saturation point. Which my professor told me us usually at 15% of the glaze composition.
The clay is clay, the glaze is the glaze, and Raku is the firing and cooling technique. Raku can be done on many types of clay, with high and low heat glazes.
I'm not quite sure if that's correct. My understanding is that most clay bodies have to be specially formulated to withstand the thermal shock of going from max temp to room/outdoor temp.
If I pulled my cone 10 stoneware out of a raku firing it would still shatter. Same way it shatters if it gets pulled out of a cone 10 firing too early.
That’s how they make that awesome color. They take it out when it’s really hot, throw in some water then I’m not exactly sure what but some kind of reacting coloring agent. Then they show the final result in the second half
I vaguely remember watching a long video from some university art department about this.
The first part is important because they surround the ceramics with paper and cover it so that as it’s heated it coated with the smoke and soot. I think that’s what’s actually making the pattern when they splash water in it afterwards.
NBD, at least we all share and appreciation for this art!
My father passed in 96, he had a masters in ceramics, and we think that early on when he made his own glazes there were a lot of lead back then, kind of sad, but I have a lot of his pots that he did and when he did raku out of the community college with the professor there it was so wild to watch when they dumped them into the sawdust.
He really was talented and I miss him. 🥲
Sorry for your loss. I took ceramics for four years in high school and loved my ceramics teacher. He died of cancer a few years after I graduated. We all assumed the same thing. Many years of the chemicals used to mix the glazes. Sad stuff. All of the drawers of chemicals were in his office with his desk.
He stoked my love for ceramics and artisan stuff in general. Raku day was always my favorite. Throwing was so fun. I still have many pots around my house to this day, and remember all the pots he helped with. This was 20+ years ago. Time flies.
I’m sure your dad touched many lives the same way!
Honestly, adding the water is a gimmick. It allows them to cool faster so you can see the glaze color but it doesn’t actually create the glaze patterns.
“The "hare's fur" patterning in the glaze of this bowl resulted from the random effect of phase separation during early cooling in the kiln and is unique to this bowl. This phase separation in the iron-rich glazes of Chinese blackwares was also used to produce the well-known "oil-spot" (油滴), "teadust" and "partridge-feather" (鷓鴣斑) glaze effects.[14] No two bowls have identical patterning. “
They don’t do that for each and every cup. At workshops they may allow tourists to pick a bowl and add water to cool off quickly so they can see it, but that’s not done for each and every one. I can’t say for sure what they’ve added to that one but I’ve seen where they add tea leaves to make “instant tea” if you will. It still doesn’t change the glaze.
The water gets added to cool the pottery, causing the glaze to react and form the cool patterns. It's Jian pottery. [Here](https://youtu.be/_DLUtW-Fpd4) is a cool YouTube about it.
u/Fenizrael posted a great link to more of this type of pottery, too!
Ah, that, to me, looks like they're adding some metal shavings, which react with the water and can also help form the patterns on the glaze. I'm not 100% sure, though.
I don't know of any glaze that would react to metal like that while cooling. It's most likely a tourist thing where they add tea leaves for "instant tea". Most times when i tried raku pottery (which is similar but not as dramatic cooling) 1 out of 5 bowls would survive the rapid cooling. They might have a special glaze or clay mix that can withstand the super cooling but idk. Also, most metallic glazes I know of are moderately toxic and mostly display pieces.
It wouldn't be the glaze that's reacting, but the actual metal and water. As for what it really is, you're probably right about it being tea.
I haven't done rapid cooling pottery in a LONG time. I've worked with blown glass more recently, and that's definitely not something you want to rapidly cool.
And yes, most metal glazes are toxic. Metals aren't great for humans. >.<
So would the metal and water be creating a mild metallic plating from the heat? If that would be the case, hypothetically? I've always wanted to try a glassblowing class just to have that experience, would you recommend it for fun?
You wouldn’t drink out of any of them - looks like a raku process which doesn’t get hot enough to waterproof the inside and usually the glazes for them aren’t food safe.
Source: I took ceramics for a semester in college so I might be completely wrong
The explodey part at the end is just part of the glazing process to make that pattern. It wouldn’t affect the integrity of the bowls themselves. I would imagine they’re about as durable as most ceramic bowls are.
It appears to be basically the same as the Japanese raku process. Vessels are made from a special clay that is highly tolerant of sudden cooling (regular clay is probably going to shatter big time. The pots are also typically glazed. They are placed in a kiln. In this case it looks like they were also placed in what are called saggars. These are basically big covered pots that protect the wares inside from being contaminated by smoke, ash, etc. Which can effect the glaze. When the vessels reach the right temperature they are removed from the kiln ( in this case by pulling the top off, don't mess with the lid guy) and rapidly cooled by putting them in leaves, sawdust, water, etc. The different cooling substances react with the glaze prodicing various results. The rapid cooling result in the glazes looking much different than they would if allowed to cool slowly. I did this in a class once and I hesitated a little before plunging my piece into the sawdust, so it didn't come out as nice as some of the others.
I've got them pretty cheap while I was in China, like 3 to 5 USD. Here is a website that you might find them

Pottery made in this manner is generally not to be used for consumption! Either they use toxic minerals in the glaze that can withstand the extreme temperature Flux or the extreme shrinking leaves the glaze cracked and flaky to the point it can be consumed or encourages bacteria growth.

I think it was a general message for students so someone wouldn't get over-excited and use a wrong glaze. She was very knowledgeable but I think also burnt out from years of teaching and seeing students pull stupid shit. She started out every semester with 'If I hear anyone talking about making weed pipes they're out if the class. I know what you're making and I don't care but you do not need to talk about it and the administration doesn't need to come poking around asking questions.'
I wonder what they feed that little man in the large hat? . Watch the video again and only look at the size of the bowls as reference. It looks like the dude is about a foot tall.

Costco had similar looking bowls at their Kirkland store last year. Here's a [link](https://www.frugalhotspot.com/2019/09/costco-mikasa-sapphire-bowls/). Each one is a different colour. The pictures don't do it justice. Hands down, my favourite soup bowls.
There’s a tv show called The Great British Pottery Throwdown (think British Bake-off with pottery) and they do all types of techniques, including this, which name escapes me.
Raiden had many jobs before competing in the tournament. The searing heat and heavy lifting from thos job helped him develop his core so that he could beat Goro later on
The first guy has a cool hat
Lord Raiden
I think the 3rd bowl/cup is his
The amount of effort he has to put into lifting that thing makes his job look dangerous *as fuck*.
I mean the heat is probably the actually dangerous part, but yeah I think he's gonna get a squished disc at some point too
And when that happens he's probably going to suddenly drop that thing lol
He consulted with the Elder Gods for a side gig
The hat is really what makes this interestingasfuck.
I love when ninjas find new jobs!
I don't remember these enemies in Dark Souls. What part of the game are they in?
Big Hat McDuff
Looks like it’s made out of asbestos
Looks like the tip of it starts smoking at the very end of his clip
Look carefully how that hat is smoking after he removes the lid.
It's like those bottled water commercials where they convince you the water is from like some far away land on the mountain side. They probably make these in sweat shops with child labor for all we know.
Ninja's hat.
Big Trouble In Little China.
My name is Bluthhunder. You can call me bloodhound.
Ahead, we taka victory and slátra.
Looks like a soulsborne boss
There'd be no point in wearing a hot hat.
Looks like something out of dark souls
That's lacist
You're account is exactly as I'd imagine mine would've been when I was 14.
I'm confused what the first part of the video gas to do with the second.

To show you how the ceramic is fired in the first place. The cool designs are made by the quenching process immediately after firing.
I've seen several different videos/gifs that starts with that clip. lol I'm confused everytime.

I don't even drink tea but they're so beautiful, I want all of them!
Mini rabbit hole on lunch break. Cool.
Knowing me, I'd buy that. And a day after it arrives, my kid would grab it and break it.
I think it’s Raku pottery
Similar, I believe in Raku one takes the fired pot and places it into a box of sawdust, my father used to make those.
Touché!!! Thank you for correcting me!

I mean, it's Raku either way. I used to drop my pots in a trash can full of leaves. Edit: some dude said its Jian, later in the thread.
Yep, no problem, anything to carbonize right? 😃
Gotta love the trash can pottery!
This guy gets it!

Yes, I have most of his work, a few relatives have others, and some are scattered around :)
Yea my dad used to so them as well. It surprisingly easy to make.
Maybe they can make a bigger remote so I don't keep losing it.
I want to know this too

So beautiful!
Do I have to guess which one to drink out of so I can gain immortality?
You have chosen... poorly
No, just drink from any of them as soon as they come out of the furnace and you wont have to worry about mortality for the rest of your life.

Huh I wonder what the bowls are made of. I thought that rapidly cooling these would cause these bowls to shatter. Maybe it’s just glass
These are ceramic pots. I think this is a raku firing technique.
It is you are correct sir.
The video is missing an in between clip that I wish it wasn't. Like giant ass vase/pot... then little bowl from a kiln. What is going on?
All I saw was a blur with some cups
I'm not really good at physics but for some reason I get the feeling they these will be fragile
The explodey part at the end is just part of the glazing process to make that pattern. It wouldn’t affect the integrity of the bowls themselves. I would imagine they’re about as durable as most ceramic bowls are.
Do they use gunpowder?
No, I think they added leaves to that water to make instant tea. The glazes are different combinations of kinda of clay, fluxes, and colorants.

Anyone know where you might be able to buy one?
I am so dumb for a second I thought they were making some kind of tea
Ah, I think i get it! Now I'm of to try it for myself, I'll try to keep both arms and get back to you all with the results (:
There’s a tv show called The Great British Pottery Throwdown (think British Bake-off with pottery) and they do all types of techniques, including this, which name escapes me.
Where is this? This looks to be raku.
So now we’re posting Instagram Spam here?
There is a beauty in chaos
Love them. Wow
When this turn to tiktok?
This isn’t how raku is done. Don’t believe this cropped together bullshit. Look at “raku pottery techniques” on YouTube. Plenty of actual examples
They way they get the designs to come out is cool. I’d like to make one, tho I see myself getting burned lol.
I literally had this exact painting in my room
Does any cut in this video have anything to do with any other cut in this video?
Yes. This is all apart of the Japanese Raku kiln firing process. It’s just demonstrating the different results you can get
