Celadon porcelain bowl “evanescent moon”

Wheel-thrown then deformed Chawan. This porcelain bowl is glazed with a very soft and subtle crackled celadon.

The powder pink comes from a neighboring piece in the kiln whose glaze contained copper (undoubtedly a copper red). Copper oxide volatilizes above 1200°C. Sometimes magic happens, allowing a celadon to attract it and thus adorn itself in pink.

The translucency of the material adds a further touch of refinement.
