    Tea Lady,

    How do you get a wood fire hot enough to fire porcelain?

    I like the spoon, especially the handle.
    So much timber, so little time.

    Nice to see something a bit different well done what type of finish did you use on the handle?

    The ceramic part was fired in a japanese style wood fired kiln. Easily gets to porcelain temperature. Takes 5 days to get there though. Fired at Robert Barron's place down in Kurrumburra.

    Handle just finished in danish oil.

    Held together just with glue. Although has a pretty good friction fit. Pondering how to make a curved slot easier to fit over the rim. The next ones will have a pin through a small hole in the rim as well.

    TL,
    Very trendy. Like it - particularly the offset handle. Drillit.
