Description
Jun Isazaki is a living national treasure of Bizen ware. (The fifth person to receive this designation for Bizen ware)
He fires his work in a long, tunnel-shaped kiln called an "anagama".
The flame is blown into the back of the anagama kiln continuously.
The fired pieces develop brown or white gradations against a bright red background.
He wraps his work in rice straw before firing it.
The color and shape of the rice straw vary from one area to another due to the effects of the natural ash glaze.
This beer glass was made around 2005.
