Lustre Glaze
Reduced Arabic lustre, an endless search for perfection in an elusive art. This ancient technique has been described as painting with smoke. The glazes contain precious metals and are exposed to intense reduction over a multitude of firings in the search for the promise of beauty. Only a few pieces make the grade from each firing.
