This cup, fired with a thin layer of glossy devitrified glaze on white slip, has a beautifully fresh and clear white color and seems to be filled with moisture. The shading of the richly applied white slip, the black iron powder, and the artful incorporation of shinogi – a decorative method involving etched ridgelines – collectively contribute to the remarkable features that make this piece stand out.
