Description

Makoto Nakamura is the eldest son of Rokuro Nakamura.
He faithfully reproduces the style of Rokuro Nakamura.
He is also skilled at crafting sake ware, just like his father.
This Guinomi beautifully expresses a red hue achieved through the Nakamura family's original firing method.
When used for drinking sake, the red color becomes even more vibrant when wet.
This Guinomi features two distinct firing patterns depending on its placement in the kiln.
60% of this Guinomi displays a green "kase-goma" (ash glaze) and a bright scarlet color.
The remainder shows "yohen" (kiln transformation) effects, offering an engaging variety of patterns as you rotate it.

He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture in 1949.
In 1971, he began an apprenticeship under his father, Rokuro Nakamura.
He established himself as an independent ceramic artist in 1975.
