*Shino*
　　In Momoyama Era(1570's - 1598), only feldspar was used as material
for Shino glaze.　　In Hiromi area, eastern part of Mt. Sanage, there are holes where feldspars were digged.
　　In Akazu, west of Mt. Sanage, there are holes where feldspars were
digged. Pottery with Shino glaze in Mino area is called generally "*Aka-Shino*"(Red Shino) because the work 　　becomes red due to feldspar glaze which includes many iron. While,
Shino glaze in Akazu area is called generally "*Shiro-Shino*"(White Shino) because the work becomes white 　　due to feldspar glaze which includes little iron.
