Not only do I adore your cups, I so loved having just the sound of your work, and no extra sound.

These cups are just SO lovely! Perfect for all sorts of coffee. I love ash glazes. And your very natural and poetic designs. I also love the attention to the bottom of the cup, as its so visible to others when you drink. You have a lovely channel and wonderful talent for pottery. ❤

Your work is beautiful. You've combined modern and traditional elements in a very pleasing way. It looks as though you use wax or fabric of some kind over the end of the stamp, what type of material is that? Is its purpose to allow the stamp to release from the pot easier?

Thank you. Yes, I covered Inka stamps with synthetic rubber sheet. You can get them from nitrile gloves.

Your kiln looks like an electric kiln with filament wire but there was a flame source coming out of a port near the top. Is it a two source kiln of some kind? Very helpful video. Thank you.
@WatajimaPottery6 ай бұрын
Thank you for watching. This is an electric kiln that can be used for both oxidation and reduction firings. Gas has been added to produce the colors of reduction in the works.

How do you glaze the whole pot and not have the base stuck to the kiln? I’m struggling to glaze my own mugs so they’re fully water resistant but don’t meld to the shelf while firing.
@WatajimaPottery5 ай бұрын
My glaze uses a glaze that is resistant to dripping during firing.
In Europa c'è la direttiva MOCA, per i privati che cristallina è scura?

Awesome! What does the white slip do on the inside?
@WatajimaPottery8 ай бұрын
Thank you. Applying white slip to the inside of the cup is primarily for aesthetic purposes. The contrast of the coffee color against the white enhances the appearance, giving the cup a softer ambiance.

Is the slip you applied to the disk fired mugs more diluted than the one you applied on the leather hard mugs? If so, why is that? I am really interested in the Mishima technique as I saw it in Karatsu.
@mariaameliadickie720311 ай бұрын
I also suppose your slip has a content of feldspar in order to adhere to the bisqued mugs.
@WatajimaPottery11 ай бұрын
Yes, I adjust the thickness of the slip for either leather-hard or bisque-fired pieces. I’ve made two videos about the “Zogan” techniques, and I explain the reasons in them. Please check them out.

In this video you apply the slip to bisque, but in previous videos you applied the slip at leather hard. Do you prefer one method over another to prevent flaking? Thank you.
@WatajimaPottery6 ай бұрын
Thank you for your comment. I apply white slip before or after bisque firing, depending on what is necessary for my work. I also show how I apply slip in the video below. Please take a look at it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIKUk4Wsiryaa5o kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJDbfmV4odB4as0
