During a recent trip to
Canberra with a group of potters I saw a number of Japanese style wood-fired
kilns. Image below shows a two-chambered noburigama kiln at Sturt Pottery in
Mittagong.
This pottery also has two
anagama kilns. The image below left shows the longer anagama, while the image
below right shows the front of the small anagama.
We also visited Old St
Luke's Studio in Gundaroo owned by ceramic artist Ian Jones. He built a nine-meter-long
anagama kiln shown in the image below left. This kiln is fired for five days and
it takes twenty tonnes of pine wood. The other kiln at this studio is a
one-chambered noburigama shown in the image below right.
