Description

Jun Isazaki is a living national treasure of Bizen ware. (The fifth person to be recognized as a living national treasure of Bizen ware)
He creates works using ordinary Bizen clay and paints them with black clay after they have dried.
"Kuro" is made from clay with a high iron content found in the Osafune district of Okayama Prefecture.
A small amount of cobalt is added after the clay is dissolved in water to create a liquid.
This Guinomi is removed from the kiln during firing, which gives it a vivid color.
