As far as bidoro goes, it doesn't get much
better or greener than this. Like a rich and valued emerald gem fresh out of
the ground, this luscious drip of bidoro like many, defies gravity and is
forever frozen as a reminder of both the process and method in which it was fired.
This close-up is from a simple, yet elegant and noble yunomi by the late master
of Shigaraki pottery; Tsuji Seimei. Like a fine gemstone, this clear and
defined drip can be quite a rarity and for Tsuji Seimei, it was just another
day at the office.
I thought this emerald green droplet would be a
great way to remind everyone that today is St. Patrick's Day and though I am
not Irish, it is a great day for a good Irish beer and a telling of a good
Irish tale, THE QUIET MAN is as good as any.
