Yohen Shiko Tenmoku Sake Cup by Koji Kamada - 燿変紫光
Koji Kamada 鎌田幸二
Koji Kamada is a renowned Japanese ceramic artist known for his mastery of Tenmoku glazes. Inspired by traditional kiln techniques, he creates works featuring dramatic oil-spot patterns and luminous, iridescent surfaces. Kamada’s pieces are highly prized for their technical precision, rare kiln effects, and strong artistic presence. Today, he is regarded as one of Japan’s leading contemporary masters of Tenmoku ceramics.
Yohen Shiko 燿変紫光
“Yohen Shiko” is one of Koji Kamada's most distinctive Tenmoku glaze expressions. Known for its rare, iridescent purple glow, this glaze emerges only under extremely precise kiln conditions—where temperature, atmosphere, and mineral balance align in a moment of pure chance. The result is a deep, mysterious surface that shifts between violet, purple, and silver tones as it catches the light. Revered for its technical difficulty and ethereal beauty, Yohen Shiko represents Koji Kamada’s mastery of kiln transformation and his contemporary interpretation of the ancient Tenmoku tradition.
