This glaze achieves it´s beauty by superposition of a white and red Shino glaze. Half of the white glaze is enriched with 10% red iron oxide.
The red Shino is applied first. When dried, the white Shino is thickly applied and then decorated while still wet. The red Shino from below shall be visible.
The details of the resulting surface are what makes this glaze so special. In my opinion this makes the glaze a perfect candidate for Chawan bowls, used in tea ceremonies.
