This short video slideshow is another one of the older videos I built quite a while back using my first digital camera and what by comparison is now considered stone age software. Unfortunately I can re-photograph this chawan and these pictures will have to do to give the best insight in to this early Kojima Kenji Iga chawan. What is immediately apparent is that this chawan was well fired and despite the nice coating of ash on the face the incised archaic style line drawing pops right out. I have seen this style of archaic inspired decoration on a number of Kojima's pieces including a few large henko and tsubo that creates movement and visual curiosity to the surface. I apologize for the less than stellar quality of the video slideshow but still think it conveys a broader sense of this Iga chawan than a single static photo would. Enjoy.
