The pots are heated in a special fast firing gas kiln - when it gets to 1000 Deg C the lid is lifted and the pots removed and placed in a sawdust container. When the sawdust is added the heat from the pots causes it to flame up. The sawdust container is then covered and the pots are in a reduced oxygen environment to mature the glazes and cause irridescence to be produced.
