Join us with our captivating pit firing session designed especially for newcomers. Unleash your inner artist as we explore this ancient pit firing process. The oldest known method for firing pottery. Celebrated for its mesmerising and unpredictable results.
Our process commences with preparing previously bisqued pots in saggars of clay or aluminium foil or on its own in the fire.The pots are nestled together in a pit or barrel in the ground and are surrounded by combustible materials such as wood, shavings, dried manure, leaves, oxides and salts to affect the surface of the pots. The oxides and salts interact with the clay, air, and fire, giving birth to unforeseen shades and intricate patterns.
