SEPARATED

I received this yunomi picture just yesterday and I really liked how the simple act of basking in the sunlight can really show off the character of a pot. This Oni-Iga yunomi was made by Tsukigata Nahiko and is quite frankly a textbook example and would make a great match to the one that I acquired several months back despite the fact that they are different and yet the same. In this photo the rich, iron lip shows well and is complimented by the normally dark black-brown glaze is brought to life in this lighting adding to the multiple personalities pottery inherits depending on how they are light and viewed. Though I have not handled this particular yunomi what I can say from past and present experience is that they are generous in form and scale, perfect for the task at hand with just the right weight and feel to make for that great blend of aesthetics and function. After taking the time to study the picture what I can say is that though separated by quite some distance this yunomi and mine make for a perfect pair.
