Description
Jun Isazaki is a living national treasure of Bizen ware. (The fifth person to receive this designation for Bizen ware)
He fires his pieces in a long, tunnel-shaped kiln called an "anagama".
The flame is fed into the back of the anagama kiln continuously.
The fired pieces develop brown or white gradations against a bright red background.
This beer glass was fired in December 2021.
It is rare for one of his fired beer glasses to exhibit such an intense flame pattern.
The natural glaze is exceptionally striking, pooling and charring like black lava.
