The colors of the fire 

Naturally colored and earthy by the fire of wood firing, Wolfgang Jacob's objects have the appearance of natural stone in terms of shape and surface. The characteristically flamed surface can also be found on his large double-walled vessels, produced using a special plate technique, as well as on the cups, bowls and plates for everyday use.
