Karatsu ware | Naoki Kojima | Korean Karatsu Muko-zuke

Korean Karatsu is a technique used by potters who came to Karatsu from the Korean Peninsula, and it came to be known as ``Korean Karatsu.'' Its characteristic feature is that it is a combination of black candy glaze (ferrous black glaze) and straw ash glaze (white cloudy glaze), and the beautiful contrast between black and white is attractive, as well as the `` bleeding '' and boundaries where they blend together. The subtle scenery of blue and yellow that is created is also one of the highlights. It's a convenient size.
