Message from Aya Honda sensei
Although this piece is underglaze blue and white porcelain (sometsuke), I primarily use green gosu pigment as well as blue. All the colors are mixed by myself, and I use five shades of blue for the grapes and six colors including green.
On the top surface, the leaves are carved while the grapes are painted with a brush. By coloring the background green—representing the earth—I created an effect that makes the wild grapes stand out in white.

The technique of painting with blue pigment on white porcelain, called "sometsuke (underglaze blue)" is fundamental. I learned near Seto City in Aichi Prefecture, so Seto sometsuke is the origin of my expression. Simultaneously with sometsuke, I carve on the base material and produce artworks under the name of my original technique, "sometsuke-bori". It would be an honor if you could take the time to appreciate the artworks of us, kōgei artists, turning it into a moment of joy and relaxation. Kōgei is an art that coexists with your life. I believe that the greatest joy comes from you holding and using our creations.
