It's a bowl described as "Bowl with tenmoku black glaze with iridescent
spots" by HISADA Shigeyoshi. I have never seen such an effect from a
tenmoku before! It looks matte, and there are blue halos! Has any one
run across this effect before?

Cheers
Jocelyn

The url I provided for this beautiful piece is correct... it just seems
that the website went belly-up overnight!

Another way to find this site is to search on google for the phrase "glaze
with iridescent spots". Unfortunatley. not even the cached version of the
site contains the picture.

unfortunate.
