Hidemi is also known as Shuuhou, the same as his father, and his grandfather who built the Yoshimura Shuuhou kiln. Hidemi is today the fifth-generation bonsai potter. It makes the Kataoka family one of the few that have produced bonsai pots for over 150 years. He has been awarded a certified "traditional craftsman". For many years, Mr. Shuuho has been making ceramics by focusing on unique and beautiful glazed bowls. One characteristic of glazed bowls is the variety of expressions. The glaze can express "depth" and "beauty" in a thickness of 1 mm or less, and enrich the expression of the pot.
