Slab Wall Pieces These pieces have been retired These pieces feature an outer frame impressed with a pattern derived from ancient Chinese woodblock plates. The plates are pressed into the clay revealing a rich texture and a subtle suggestion of history. The inner portion of the tile is decorated with an incised drawing, consisting of various nature motifs. The designs are incised into the clay when it is still wet . The piece is then bisque fired. The glaze is then inlaid into the drawing with a very small brush. After the glaze is applied, the outer frame is coated with a combination of metallic oxides. The piece is then Raku fired. The Raku firing process results in swirling metallic coloration in the outer frame and a brilliantly colored inner tile, with the rich patina of crackled glaze. The tile is mounted on wood. There is a cut-out in the backing which allows for easy hanging on the wall of your choice. These pieces measure 13.5"x7.5" and the purchase price is $190.
