I took these photos in Jike on a sunny and pleasant Friday afternoon, November 22, 2013. On that day, there was an exhibition of pottery at a small art gallery, where I bought a nice blue-color coffee cup. The pottery products on display were made by a Turkish ceramist, Cengiz Dikdogmus, who came to Japan in 1991 making pottery emphasising traditional Turkish style and color. He now lives in Yamanashi prefecture where he has his studio.
