The video must be over 40 - 50 years old but I'm so happy to see that these are been kept and available on UA-cam today in 2024!
Oh my God ... I went to a Japanese Buddhist festival today and it reminded me of this film that I saw long long ago when I was a kid. I loved it then and I'm so glad to find this on You-Tube. It reminds me of why I had such respect for the Japanese and Asian artistic sensibility. This series is just amazing. 7000 years they said the have been making pottery in Japan! Thanks for posting this.
Very interesting seeing some of the masters work in their own workshops. I wish there were more of these docu's.
Thank you for this movie, legendary artists!
Very very cool videos! Thank you! ♥
Adding a weight to keep the half-thrown pot in place. Genius!
I own a couple of Rakusai pieces, they are some of my most prized possessions.
Did you note that there is feldspar in the clay itself, that gives it an inherent glaze? Right up your alley I would think!
That is what I was looking at! Amazing!
It is a Korean kick wheel made of hardwood
If you're referring to Rakusai: who's kicking it?
what year were these films made ?
Beautiful and interesting the video, but their should be no music at all, or very deep in the background. 😉
Hello,
Is this video free of use ?
If not, could you please direct me to the right owner ?
Thanks.
5:00 Why is the clay dark?
Do you mean the clay from Bizen? I think it is due to a large amount of decayed organic material - I have read that this causes glaze problems (probably blistering from escaping carbon dioxide as it burns out during firing) and that this is why Bizen ware is traditionally unglazed. Another possibility is iron oxide, which gives fired Bizen ware its reddish brown color. Iron occurs in raw clay in two forms: red, the most common form, which is Fe2O3, and black, which is Fe3O4. The dark color might also be due to the presence of black iron oxide, but my guess is organic matter.
j'adore
what was the pottery wheel called that Mr. Rakusai at Shigaraki use?
He's just got a bat set on top of it, if that's what you're asking.
The sons of Bitches have great skill I admire
