Crafts – Ceramics

The hōsōge arabesque patterns in relief on the body covered with white glaze, partially appear from under the bright reddish purple copper red glaze, showing a diversified expression. Komori Shinobu, who studied old Chinese ceramics, and was well posted on blending glazes, created this work at his kiln which he built in Dalian, China. It is a keepsake of Empress Kojun.(「Reviewing Modern Ceramics」2021)
