*There is a possibility that a color of the photograph and an actual color are somewhat different.-- From Wikipedia --Tatsuzo Shimaoka (Shimaoka Tatsuzo, 27 October 1919 – 11 December 2007) was a Japanese mingei potter who studied under Shoji Hamada and later became the second Living National Treasure of Mashiko, Japan.He was best known for his unique Jomon zogan style of pottery, and was a master of many slip decorating and firing techniques for pottery. Throughout his career, Shimaoka worked collaboratively with a group of workers, students, and apprentices from Japan and abroad. After supervising the loading of what would become his last noborigama firing in late 2007, Shimaoka collapsed, and died several weeks later in late 2007 from acute liver failure at Mashiko in Tochigi Prefecture.
