Fumie Oyama creates pottery in Sano, Tochigi Prefecture.
A number of blue and white porcelain works with Ko-Imari motifs. Painted with cobalt blue.
It has a unique worldview, and the delicate and intricate painting is not gaudy but beautiful and appealing to the heart.
The shape and painting have been carefully finished with attention to detail, showing the care taken in the process.
It's great for everyday use, but it's also cute just to have it around.
It also makes a great gift.
