Cornerstones of this ceramic style are shaping the piece by hand rather than on a potter’s wheel, and removing the piece from the kiln while it’s still red hot. The potter takes the piece from the kiln and puts it into a container full of a combustible material like sawdust, resulting in the surface’s distinct look.
