{"title":"Aizu","description":"\u003cp\u003eAizu Hongo is the oldest pottery town in northern Japan. For four hundred years it has made pieces suited to life in deep snow country.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat sits here comes from Kinone kobo in Aizu Hongo. Thick enough to set on the table without a second thought, and weighted to settle into the hand. Some under an amber glaze, some in white slip, some with a line drawn in cobalt. These are not chosen for show. They are the pieces you reach for morning and night, and after a while they end up at the front of the shelf without anyone deciding it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe signature form of Aizu Hongo is the nishin bowl, made for pickling dried herring. It is a clear case of a shape born from need becoming a style. The amber comes from an iron-bearing \u003ca href=\"\/en-tw\/blogs\/guide\/japanese-graze\"\u003eglaze\u003c\/a\u003e that deepens or lightens with the firing. The white pieces are \u003ca href=\"\/en-tw\/blogs\/glossary\/kohiki\"\u003ekohiki\u003c\/a\u003e, white slip over red clay, so the body underneath shows faintly near the rim.
