Tsujimura formed this cylindrical jar using a pebbly, sandy clay to create a pocketed, textured surface. In the kiln, wood-ash naturally fell on the surface to create a thin layer of grey-green glaze. The jar’s subdued coloring is a fitting background to emphasize its contents, such as vibrantly colored fruits or candies.
