Junzo Maekawa Black & Gold Glaze Teapot 01
Description
<p>Each piece in this collection is handcrafted by Junzo Maekawa, the fourth-generation master of Kenzan Kiln in Tokoname, Japan, one of the country's Six Ancient Kiln sites with a pottery tradition stretching back to the 12th century.</p>
<p>Known as kurokinsai, or "black gold," Maekawa's signature finish is achieved through kiln firing, where the balance of oxygen in the kiln determines the final color: more oxygen yields warmer gold tones, less produces a deeper black. The result is a surface that is both rustic and luminous, with each piece carrying a unique harmony of the two.</p>
