Description

Mitsuru Isezaki is one of the potters who inherited Bizen ware redeveloped by Toyo Kanesige.
His pottery style is simple and undecorated to show off the goodness of the clay.
This Tokkuri has a beautiful texture due to the good quality of the clay.
The surface of this Tokkuri has a rainbow-colored fire pattern called "Kinsai".
This Tokkuri is shaped on the potter's wheel, allowed to dry a bit, and then the excess clay is removed with a wooden spatula.
This process gave the surface a softer texture and transformed the body into one that you will want to keep forever.
