Te Haunui Anagama Kiln Pt 6

“The great appeal of anagama firing is its total unpredictability so that each piece is unique in its character and can never be repeated.  Deliberately inefficient and taking considerable amounts of wood, an anagama kiln will reveal the effects of flame, ash and vitrification that make the wares unique.”  (Chester Nealie, one of Australasia’s greatest exponents of wood firing.)

The 6th firing of the Wellington Potters Association’s Te Haunui Anagama kiln in Horokiwi, Wellington, from 17-21 March, 2010, concluded with the unloading of the kiln on Sunday 28 March.  This marked the 6th anniversary of the commencement of the anagama project in March 2004 and the 4th anniversary of the first firing in March 2006.
