What is Chusen (注染)?
Chusen is a dyeing technique where a stencil is used to apply a paste to block the dye, and then the dye is poured (注ぐ - sosogu) onto it. Each piece is created with a subtle, unique texture through the craftsman's handwork. It's also appealing how it becomes more familiar and develops a richer character with use.
