Saggar and barrel firing use combustible materials, natural elements, and smoke to produce beautiful variations in color, texture, and pattern on clay. Each piece develops its own character through the firing process, making every result a little different. It's a fun opportunity to experiment, embrace the unexpected, and see what happens when you let the fire do some of the work!
