Ono Hakuko
1915-1996
female
She is the eldest daughter of Ono Kozan. She studied ceramics at the Amber Pottery run by her father.
In 1992, she was designated as an important intangible cultural asset by Saga Prefecture as the holder of the “Yurikinsai, ceramic glaze underglaze gold painting” technique. In the underglaze gold glaze technique, thick gold leaf is applied to the base, a low-fire glaze is applied, and the piece is fired.
Counting from the unglazed firing, the gold leaf is fired six times to give a subdued taste. It is a very delicate process and a uniquely Japanese technique with an ethereal glow.
