Earth Monument Raku Urn

The Earth Monument Raku Urn are hand made through a fascinating process. A ceramic urn is heated in a kiln until it reaches 2000 degrees, then it is pulled out carefully and plunged into a pit of wood shavings, instantly igniting. Overnight the urn will smolder and what is created is a urn filled with radiant flashes of color. No two Raku Urns are exactly alike. Each is topped with a unique sticks-and-stones adornment.

These urns are handmade and fired individually. There are variations and imperfections in the color which make this one of a kind urn beautiful.
