It is an interesting technique. Problem is that after you reduced the
oxides during firing, they start oxidising slowly during the months
after that.
I made also another set of compound vases (using a 3D printer to create
a mold) those colors are totally different (mostly greens and red) even
if I used more or less the same pigments.
Mainly fired my recent work in a more traditional way. I might return to
japanese techniques when I have objects that are suitable for that.
Perhaps another set of larger compound vases?

That's interesting. I didn't know that but seems logical indeed. So you
never know what to expect in the end. I think I like that :-)

Slight variations in temperatures? in burning times?

This is going a bit OT but... As raku, I particularly like the rougher,
simple objects. They are only simple at a superficial glance though.
