Kiln master Tjalling Mulder of the Europees Keramisch Werk Centrum (EKWC) in Oisterwijk in The Netherlands is visiting Arita for a one-month research project. While he is in Arita he will research firing methods that use less gas and also visit several kilns to learn traditional wood firing methods. He will also try to produce sets of bowls with Amakusa Clay which is single material from Amakusa Mountain. It is a unique material different to porcelain clay used in other places worldwide.
