Wood Firing
This is the wood firing kiln in Neuilly-en Sancerre, it is a multi chamber chamber kiln called a Noborigama, or climbing kiln. This style of kiln was developed in Japan to increase efficiency and predictability in the firing results.
The magic of wood firing is the natural beauty of ash glazes that cannot be duplicated with gas or electric kilns.
In Neuilly we will be doing wood firing and residencies for potters who are passionate about alternative firing.
