Seiji Koro (青瓷香爐)
This is a Kyoto ware incense burner which Ikai-san has created.
It's just larger in size.
You see the design like crimpy lines with glaze on the surface, it's called "kannyuu".
It happens naturally because there's difference in shrinkage between glaze and raw clay.
Height : 10.5 cm
Diameter : 13.6 cm
Ikai-san was born and grew up in Gojozaka, Kyoto. An elegant blue porcelain shows his sincere passion to ceramic as well as ash-glazed pottery.
