Description

Koichiro Isezaki is Jun Isezaki's eldest son.
He uses a tunnel-shaped kiln called an "anagama."
This new work was fired in 2021.
He creates pieces using standard Bizen clay, then applies a black clay coating after the pieces have dried.
The "Kuro" (black) slip is made from iron-rich clay from the Osafune district of Okayama Prefecture.
A small amount of cobalt is added after dissolving the clay in water to create a liquid state.
The black clay applied to the work transforms into a beautiful black color when fired.
