Description

Shuroku Harada studied old Bizen ware.
He was a student of ceramics researcher Katsura Matasaburo.
The knowledge he gained forms the basis of his pottery style.
He hasn't fired a kiln in recent years.
Judging by the condition of the wooden box and the enclosed resume, I presume that it was made around 1980–1990.
This tokkuri feels different from his current style.
The good-quality clay has been changed to three colors.
He completed the shape by shaving it with a wooden spatula.
He now makes visual cuts, but this time he didn't show much of the shavings.
