I was keeping making Ceramic dolls of the simple texture from 20 years before, but when I'd like to be impressed with beauty of the shade of the glaze of a vase in 5 years before and put on its beauty, I have begun to work on accessary making of Shigaraki ware. It's light, and the calcined method down which good clay of coloring and glaze don't float is developed, and a light and beautiful colored Shigaraki jewelry "Juno " has been completed 2 years before largely.  

 The technology with which a large accessary is made was done, but when I'd like to raise more charm of goods as a jewelry, I went to information collection to France and Italy which are forward land in jewelry culture.

 When it was visited in market research to Florence in Italy with this "Juno" last year, I received high evaluation for many people as well as I met up with the Zecchi family which reproduces pigment from rocks in the Renaissance age at a long-established store subject matter for a painting store in Florence. If it was the same pigment as the one Michelangelo used formerly endured by the firing temperature of 1200 ℃ of pottery from this Mr. Zecchi, the one handed over was cobalt-blue pigment from rocks.  

 When the pigment from rocks brought home was analyzed and compounded at Shiga prefectural industrial technologies synthetic center Shigaraki ceramic industry examination room, and it was given to "Juno" and it was baked up, excellent cobalt blue like the color of the sky of Michelangelo's masterpiece "the last referee" colored, and "Blue Michelangelo" was born.  

 Pigment from rocks in the Renaissance age and Shigaraki ware are to encounter and put it on the born body, and history and cultural fusion are a felt completely new Shigaraki jewelry for "Blue Michelangelo".
