Flower pattern series. By placing the flowers that are each slightly different in a regular manner, I wanted people to think that the flowers with different expressions are fun,
Especially in this piece, I wanted to express the cuteness of the flowers in the plump round shapes of the flowers.

Overglaze enamel

Overglaze enamel decorations (iro-e, literally “colored pictures”) are achieved by applying designs to the surface of already glazed and fired porcelain. The decorations are painted over the glaze, and the piece is fired again at a low temperature of approximately 800℃. The pigments used in traditional overglaze decorations are known as wa enogu (“Japanese paints”) and offer a palette of colors such as red, blue, yellow, green, and purple. Overglaze enameling may also be done with Western pigments (yō enogu).

Shu Mochizuki

Producing pieces based on what I am charmed and moved by in nature. Applying feldspathic glaze and adding iron decorations, red painting, color painting and gold decorations is my specific style.
