Description
Jun Isazaki is a living national treasure of Bizen ware. (The fifth person to be designated as a living national treasure for Bizen ware)
This mizusashi was fired by him around 2004.
He fires his work in a long, tunnel-shaped kiln called an anagama.
The flame is blown into the back of the anagama kiln over a long distance.
This is a "yohen" mizusashi, fired only in a specific area of the anagama kiln.
This mizusashi has an outstanding flame pattern due to the extremely high temperatures reached.
Yohen fired in an anagama kiln is usually charcoal gray, but this mizusashi is a beautiful black.
