彫りの技 カンナ

Carving Techniques: "Kanna"

This skillful technique is used to carve elegant patterns called ‘shinogi’ on the surface of clay before firing. The artist engraves the surface with a tool called a ‘kanna’ and carefully applies a glaze before firing it in the kiln. The shading created by the patterns on the white porcelain results in objects with dazzlingly unique beauty.
