Description

I would guess that he created this piece around 1992.
He invented various new ways of firing Bizen ware in addition to standard Bizen ware.
This is one such piece, a "Neriage" piece made of multiple folded and stacked layers of different types of clay, which are then formed on the potter's wheel.
In addition to the marbled pattern of Neriage, the natural glaze adhering to the surface causes further changes in coloration.
Guinomi's exemplary design is typical of his work as a pottery instructor.
