KOSAI WARE:
Thirty years ago an American professor researched a technique which involved the fuming of gold that had been sprayed on pottery surfaces. This technique was kept secret for all thirty years. Just recently he began to share his research and gave it the name "KOSAI WARE", which is a Japanese expression for hue of light. The technique involves the fuming of gold that has been sprayed onto the pottery surface, using the chemical stannous chloride. The interaction of the salt and the gold provides a beautiful permanent, iridescent surface.
