Copper Glazed Pots from Yunotsu.



These copper glazed pots were made by Umeo Yamamoto-san at Yunotsu, Japan. I am not sure whether the colours were from the natural materials he used or the way he fired but I had never seen a copper glaze with so much variation of colour before. Sadly we could not communicate very well so it was hard to be sure of his techniques.

  3. As a new subscriber to your blog and busy reading all entries going back a little at a time, thank you for all your wonderful listings and informative details. I have also caught your firings on youtube and am mesmerized by the way you fire the anagama.
