Hamada at the Leach

Tomoo painting a decorative bowl in the 'Hakeme' way.
Turning a straight-sided 'Oribe' style 'Chawan' (teabowl) with Koy onlooking.

'Turning' a large bowl with iron 'loop' tool.


Tomoo's 'Chawans', In various traditional shapes, on display in their finished state.


For the last week I have had the pleasure of meeting and working alongside Hamada Tomoo. He is a third generation potter from Mashiko, Japan, and a descendant of the great master Hamada Shoji. He came to the Leach pottery studio's to create a body of work with the local potters that live in the penwith district in west Cornwall, including; Jason Wason, John Bedding, Jack Doherty. These pots were to be included in an exhibition of his work at the Leach pottery where I have my pottery studio space. He created enough pots to fill the kiln in three days. It would take me about a month.

On saturday Tomoo demonstrated a few of his techniques to the public and gave a talk with the help of his translator Koy. This was followed by a kiln opening, and later, by the private view of his exhibition.

The Hamada family history is rich with stories and knowledge. Their links to the U.k's pottery traditions are highly important. It was Hamada Shoji's partenership with Bernard Leach in setting up the Leach pottery (St. Ives Cornwall), in the 1920's, that has given a strong and influential foundation for the significance of modern day studio pottery in Britain.
