As a teacher at the National Ceramic Testing Institute under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, he engaged in basic research on iron glazes (Tenmoku glazes) and base materials, and devoted himself to the study of Tenmoku glazes in Gojozaka, Kyoto. After establishing his own unique techniques, he served as an auditor for the Japan Traditional Crafts Exhibition and a director of the Japan Crafts Association, and is still a highly popular artist with many fans today. This is an excellent work by Kimura Morikazu.
