In the first room, we spray water on the wall plaster to prevent dust before removing the bricks.
The pieces in the foreground are mainly made up of pieces called Gohonte, which are made with a transparent ash glaze and a green glaze on top.
The green glaze coffee cup on the Gohonte is colored red due to the reduction of the copper in the green glaze.
The straw ash glaze is in the center, and is melted in front of the fire but dull towards the back.
The green glaze in the back of the first room melted well.
The cinnabar glaze on the pod at the back of the first room did not turn red.
The straw ash glaze on the tea bowl's pod is slightly matte and the mochi straw ash glaze has barely melted.
The cinnabar glaze on the pot of the tea bowl in the foreground did not melt very much and turned azuki brown.
