This hanaire (flower container) was thrown as a cylinder and then the sides were cut with a wire to give the angular shape. Fired in our anagama for about nine days to give the natural colours.
The Heron Migrates is the story of how a Japanese anagama kiln came to New Zealand. From Estelle and Bruce Martin's diaries from their trips to Japan and the building and firing of the Kamaka anagama. Soft cover with 400 photographs and drawings. 160 pages.

Its still hard to imagine a 9 day firing. I wonder if any other potters in NZ have done that. I can't think of any.
