Isezaki Jun (b. 1936) is the most recent of the four Bizen-yaki potters to be awarded the Japanese National Living Treasure designation. Isezaki received the title in 2004. He is known for his harmonious integration of contemporary forms with traditional Bizen styles. Hidasuki is one of his trademark methods, and this yunomi is an excellent example. Hidasuki (緋襷), or "red cord," is the application of strands of rice straw to unfired pots. During the firing process, the areas in contact with the straw turn various shades of red or crimson, depending on each potter's individual technique.
