Description
It is a « chamotté » sandstone which I created myself at a technical meeting of "raku".
The technical of the "raku" is a process of cooking. The incandescent parts are smoked out, soaked in water, burned and left with the free air. They undergo an considerable thermal shock.
This ashtray was created a few years ago and time marked!!!!
Il s’agit d’un cendrier en grès chamotté que j'ai créé moi-même lors d'une séance de "raku".
La technique du « raku »est un procédé de cuisson. Les pièces incandescentes sont enfumées, trempées dans l'eau, brûlées et laissées à l'air libre. Elles subissent un choc thermique important.
Ce cendrier a été créé il y a quelques années et le temps l'a marqué!!!!
And thank you very much for your comments on my previous upload:

C'est ce qu'en traitement des métaux on appelle tremper l'acier, si je ne me trompe...cela rend l'acier hyper résistant...MAGNIFIQUE...presque "Hellène" !

you've caught the sense of an ancient face emerging through time, like a ruin which speaks to us across the abyss. I know raku "wants" rough surfaces (and cracks), and you've managed to make them look like the veins of time. But then you photographed it---and both the lighting and the table's grain give a perfect musical 'counterpoint' to the image. And then, the image's back-side almost looks like a miniature Stonehenge. Mysterious and complex, and looking as if it came to us from the ages...many thanks. Mark
