Thow Kwang dragon kiln is on the world map of wood kilns! Thanks to potter Simon Levin of Wisconsin, our dragon kiln is the latest addition to his map which shows more than 90 wood kilns around the world. It is no mean feat. It is interesting to click on the pins on the map and look at the varied range of wood kilns. Quite a number of the kilns were personally built by the potters themselves. Just amazing!

It’s that time of the year when the moon is at its brightest.
So bring your lanterns and join the Thow Kwang Clay Artists for an evening of mooncakes, tea and moon gazing.
Date: Saturday, 3 October
Time: 6.30pm onwards
Place: 85, Lorong Tawas (off Jalan Bahar)
PS: Being typical Singaporeans, we will be having more than just mooncakes! 
Join us in our second exhibition of wood-fired pieces from Thow Kwang dragon kiln.
After firing for over 32 hours, we were eager to see our pieces. Here’s a peek into the belly of the dragon.
It required some effort to break the sealed doorways and the damper wall before we get a good view of the fired pieces.
Pieces from Chambers 4 and 2.
A closer look at the clay pieces.
A variation of textures bearing the effects of intense flame, fly-ash and salt – unique only to wood-firing.
