Purple raku artisan crafted lidded pottery terrine by M. Hines. Raku generally refers to a type of low-firing process that was inspired by traditional Japanese raku firing. Delving further into raku's history, it dates back to the early 1550s as mentioned specifically for the Zen Buddhist Masters in their ceremonial tea ware. It's been well documented that this was the favored method of ceramics for the Zen Buddhist masters as raku ware touches on many things that Zen philosophy embodies, most notably its simplicity and naturalness.
The piece is signed on the underside by the artist. less
