The designs of this selection of hand-made tiles are created from impressions made by an etched copper plate on stretched slabs of porcelain. Tiles are individually made using this porcelain body, biscuit fired at 1000*C and then re-fired rapidly in a raku kiln to about 900*C. Each tile is unique due to the unpredictable nature of Raku.
These tiles vary in size up to 11 x 11 cms.
