Canvas laid on professional archival Amersand museum hard board panel.

Over the years we have taken a special interest in Raku-ware and especially in works produced by the Tamamizu kiln, such as the 300+ year old ceremonial tea bowl seen here.

Though he is the first potter of this branch, he is sometimes referred to as Tamam...
