PINE Porcelain Box (L)

Feature

Casting: When making square boxes, care needs to be taken to ensure that the lid will fit perfectly and that the hollow part does not cave in after firing. Especially, since the body part of the box tends to shrink inward, it must be casted and trimmed with potential shrinkage taken into account in order to keep it straight after firing

Glazing: The compound of indigo color for this piece is based on a color sample from a famous artisan named Chitōjin. Chitōjin’s unique brush techniques that alternate in pressure and lightness are used to paint areas such as the trunk of the pine tree. When painting, a specialized thick brush is filled with indigo paint, which is then carefully applied by squeezing the brush’s bristles, using surface tension, and inclining the product with the brushless hand. The leftover paint is returned to the brush by loosening the pressure of the hand. The beautiful gradation can only be expressed with qualified adjustments based on the senses of a skilled artisan.

Finish

The paint is slowly and carefully squeezed onto the bisque fired piece from a fully saturated brush, and any excess is then absorbed back into the same brush when the artisan loosens their grip on the brush bristles.
