Black is one of the colors used by mankind since prehistory along with red iron. They are also the first to appear in the chromatic world of ceramics; we find traces of color in periods such as the Neolithic or the Bronze Age. The color black, red, white and the combination of all of them is part of the palette of colors of the Celtiberian culture.
No ceramic glazes, no oxides only clay. Is baked with a wood-fired traditional oven.
I lives and works in a small village in Catalonia in Northern Spain. The traditional Ceramica Negra (black ceramics) has been made in this region since the 14th Century. The black pottery is achieved by backing the clay in a smoke-filled oven, the result is that the excess carbon turns the clay completely black. In its raw, unglazed state, the earthenware takes on a mat and charred finish.
