Description
He built his first kiln in Maruyama, Okayama in 1964.
The kiln is now used by his eldest son, Makoto Kaneshige.
A group of un-fired Sosan Kohiki pieces were found in a warehouse near the kiln.
They were probably made and painted white by him about 50 years ago.
Mako thought it was a waste and tried to fire them in the kiln, and succeeded.
The finished glaze has a pale yellow tinge because it was fired in the kiln.
The soft white color matches very well with his laid-back design.
