This large circular dish is crafted from porcelain, glazed in blue, green and yellow to create a gradient artwork that may mirror its title: Dawn, meaning the first appearance of light in the sky before sunrise.
The glazes flow across this dish, Tokuda used the traditional colours of the Kutani-style glazes of his region. He was the third generation in a family of potters and Tokuda was made a Living National Treasure in 1997, for his work on colourful porcelain glazes.
