This splendid tokkuri (sake pouring vessel) is one of the new pieces fired by Ema Hiroshi in the spring of this year (2009). Looking at this new series of works, it seems clear the potter has tamed Someya pottery; an orphan tradition whose secrets of production he had to unearth and master alone.

Unokawa Kazumasa, born in Nara in 1952, not far from Kyoto, where the Ashikaga clan resided, is a master craftsman of Tenmoku pottery. He never had a mentor and let “the clay, the kil ...click for details

Yamaguchi Takeshi, born in 1951, graduated from the prestigious Waseda University in 1975 with a degree in political science. Two years later, he was studying pottery in the Japanese Alps; so much for a career as a white collar. In 1978, Yamaguchi studied Takatori ware in Fukuoka, on the island of Kyushu. Takatori-yaki originated near Mount Takatori in the early 17th century, when a Korean potter named Pal San started producing ceramics there under the patronage of the local lord.
