Description

Kousuke Kaneshige is the third son of Toyo Kaneshige.
He lives in Kagato, Bizen City, where potters have lived since ancient times.
He creates traditional Bizen ware and innovative sculptures while following the teachings of his father, Toyo Kaneshige.
This Chawan was fired near the barber spot in the kiln.
The area is extremely hot, and many natural glazes adhere to the pieces.
Potters in the Kaneshige family often fire a Chawan there.
This is because the large amount of natural glaze produces a glossy, smooth texture.
