CERAMICS
Kotsuji's ceramics are rugged yet refined, reflecting the Japanese countryside. Another of his unique ceramics are the turquoise blue cups that use the fire-resistant soil of Iga, that allow the cups to be fired twice producing the beautiful textures and colors.
The bright Turkey Blue ware created through many years trial and error
The special Kotsuji's blend glaze was difficult to hold in the clay, and after years of testing, the blue ware are finally produced. The thick glaze pools at the bottom and has a mysterious, space-like beauty.
