Description
The two Guinomi were made by Ken Fujiwara before 1970.
He built a large kiln in 1970, and this Guinomi was fired in a Noborigama kiln.
He placed this Guinomi in a part of the Noborigama kiln where it was not exposed to direct fire.
It was placed inside another piece or in a box of refractory clay called a saya.
The two Guinomi both feature Hidasuki, but they have very different atmospheres.
On the one hand, a little goma is very effective in creating a dry texture, while on the other hand, the wet Hidasuki is very beautiful.
I think it is a combination that reflects Ken's keen sensitivity.
