Shozansaku Shino Maccha Bowl (Aichi Prefecture, Setoyaki)
Astounding
piece of art that combines colors of stark contrast
and contains both clay and porcelain.
Shino ware is a type of Japanese pottery most identifiable for
thick white glazes, red scorch marks, and a texture of small holes. Firings of
Shino tend to be of lower temperature for longer periods of time, followed by a
slow cooling process. These conditions do not allow the glaze to melt fully,
and the result is a thick glaze that often has a crawling pattern.
