ABOUT RAAQUU:
Almost 15 years ago, Adil was enamored with Raku pottery while undergoing a ceramics training program in Japan. He made a daring step to hone his expertise in all things Raku and the result of that decision led to the birth of RAAQUU.
Raku ceramics are special because of the unpredictability of the raku firing technique, done in an extremely hot kiln and then removed while the ceramic piece is still red-hot or molten. Immediately after coming out of the kiln, the ceramic piece is then placed in a reduction chamber - usually a simple metal bin or container - filled with sawdust or paper. The extreme heat from the ceramic piece then ignites the combustible material in the reduction chamber, which is then sealed for a while. What happens inside the reduction chamber next is the key to the unique and unpredictable colors and patterns of each raku ceramic piece.
RAAQUU commits 10% of the sales proceeds from this piece will go towards the RAAQUU Coral Project Fund. The RAAQUU Coral Project Fund finances the creation of coral reef attachment ceramic tiles, R&D and operational activities that target coral reef rehabilitation. Read more here. #RAAQUUcoralreeffund
