I am potter myself sometimes working with stoneware sometimes with porcelain. What is happening after the firing with the selection of good and bad pieces is heartbreaking. What a dedication to a perfectionism. The time spent with every piece, there are days and days of time in it. You are actually not throwing away only the pottery piece you are throwing away a bit of your lifetime, the energy and love you have given the piece. They firing decides what is good or not.... I am not sure this is a good way.
I just found an authentic crane and cloud patterned celadon meiping vase at a thrift store for $3. I was so excited because I knew what it was and nabbed it.
Iron oxide in the glaze is what give it the green color, not plants and leaves. Plants and leaves would burn up in the kiln, so the color wouldn't be preserved anyway. Iron oxide is the same element that gives glass a greenish tinge. It's the ratio of the minerals included in the glaze that determines the final color, with amounts of less than 1 percent making the difference between beautiful and poor colors.
Sakyamuni, the beginning of Buddhism, accidentally took to the streets and had to fight a martial art battle to marry a woman he liked, which was done by the witch's magic, and after marriage, he found out that his wife was a ghost and fled to fight the witch in the wilderness !!
+You I used to do that to work I wasn't satisfied with. Then I had a chat with Kanzaki Shiho, and we discussed the beauty of imperfection. He taught me that mistakes can be beautiful too. This from a man who sells tiny cups for 22 grand.
Korean celadon is my most favorite Korean atrtwork, but I don't like it as much as the Chinese celadon. However, Korean celadon wins me over the Japanese celadon as I find Japanese celadon to be extremely bland (color-wise and shape-wise).
Incredible artistry and talent, but something just strikes me as wrong when he has them break all sorts of vases that human beings could enjoy simply because they don't meet a particular quality standard. Of course it is his right to ensure a high quality of his masterpiece work, but why not simply mark some of them as defective in some way and allow others to enjoy them without weakening his mark or brand? It would also be good to figure out ways to use technological advances to simplify the production process so as to make it less precarious!

Celadon when the light hits the piece it glimmers like jade! I am fortunate to own one piece which I cherish and preserve under glass.
What a wonderful video.Thank you.
Great to see how the inlay is actually done; what an art!
