      I’m wondering if the varied coloration and iridescence is from a Raku firing technique.
      Lovely dish!

      Hi, PKSingh3. :-)

      That's beautiful. The most amazing things can turn up in thrift stores.

      I didn't find another one like it, but there are more than a few Kotobuki pieces out there, including this stunning service:
