Soda-fired Yunomi #202
Yunomi, Porcelain, soda-fired (partial glaze)
A yunomi, the Japanese everyday teacup without a handle, with an hourglass waist and an incised line around it. The upper part is glazed in a dark grey-blue, the lower part in a lighter grey, and a thin orange line marks the waist. The inside is cream with orange flashing.
In the soda firing, soda is added to the kiln at high temperature. The vapour settles on the piece, which gives the orange flashing on the unglazed parts and the uneven gloss on the glaze.
ca. 180ml
