Tsujimura formed the conical walls and prominent foot of this bowl on a potter's wheel. A thin layer of kofuki, or “blown powder,” glaze creates a powder-like texture on the bowl’s sandy clay. Typically, kofuki glaze is white. Here, Tsujimura incorporated segments of dark green. The different colors blended together during firing to create natural, flowing patterns across the bowl’s surface.
