🍐This beautiful pear-shaped #porcelain bottle from Japan is covered in a distinctive green flambé glaze.
It was made by Ishiguro Kōkō of the Sumida #Pottery in Tokyo, named after the nearby Sumida River.
Flambé glazes such as this require high-firing temperatures and the exact results are not entirely controllable. They rely on many factors such as the thickness of the glaze application and the kiln’s atmosphere.
