The method involves applying a white slip (liquid clay) over a darker clay body before glazing. This slip layer creates a soft, powdery surface quality that feels warm and slightly absorbent to the touch.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor this piece, the Kohiki slip is formulated to interact with the soda kiln atmosphere, becoming the canvas for blue coloration rather than remaining white.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInstead of traditional salt firing (now largely discontinued for environmental reasons), this bowl was fired in a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"15\"\u003esoda wood-kiln\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDuring the firing, a solution of soda ash (sodium carbonate) is sprayed into the kiln at high temperatures—typically around 1300°C .
