♱: Thank you for viewing:♱: ❤︎Please be sure to read the profile❤︎ Tsuboya-yaki Nio Kobashigawa Yachimun Guinomi (sake cup) About Akae (red painting): Akae is a technique where a piece is first fired in a climbing kiln, then red paint is applied, and it's fired again at a lower temperature. Mr. Man's Akae features bold brushstrokes and uses multiple colors like red, yellow, green, light blue, and purple. Recently, the amount of red-colored clay has decreased. Because it's difficult to bake these colors well, these pieces are considered valuable. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - You'll be captivated by the dynamic brushwork and bold colors.
