Yunomi
Potter Yoshimitsu Ishihara uses locally dug clay from the area around his home in Fukuoka prefecture to produce his ceramic vessels. With a background in sculpting Ishihara's first concern is shape and form. Although some work is made on a wheel, much of his work is hand-built and wood fired resulting in organic shapes and varied surface tones and textures.
**The wood fired ceramics can vary in color from side to side. We recommend you view all the images to see both sides of the vessel. The size, shape and color of each vessel will vary slightly.
Yoshimitsu Ishihara

He later returned to his hometown of Fukuoka where he built a Makigama (wood-fired kiln) and began production of ceramic tableware.
