Description
Porcelain Mug with glacier celadon over vertical dot-dot-daaash blue Mishima slip inlay.
Mishima pottery comes from the Japanese Island of Mishima, but it was originally transported from Korea around the 16th century. This surface design technique is a way of drawing fine lines by inlaying a slip of contrasting color into lines incised in leather-hard clay. This technique allows for extremely fine, intricate design work with hard, sharp edges that can be difficult to reliably replicate in any other way.
