Description

Shuroku Harada studied old Bizen ware.
He was a student of ceramics researcher Matasaburo Katsura.
The knowledge he gained forms the foundation of his pottery style.
He has not fired a kiln in recent years.
This Guinomi has so much natural glaze that it appears as if it were intentionally glazed.
The intense flames produce a natural black color through the reaction between the clay components and the fire.
He has his own unique way of forming the body.
He builds the body by stacking coils of clay.
Finally, large "Shinogi" spatula cuts are used to complete the design.
The inner edges feature hidden cuts, added for usability rather than design, which helps to characterize his pottery style.

He was born in Okayama Prefecture in 1941.
He became a potter in 1969.
He became a disciple of Matasaburo Katsura in 1975 and studied Old Bizen.
