    1. As is noted in a number of places on my blog, I do not take personal queries. I am not sure why yours is not gold, unless the color wore off or something. Since a blog setting is hard to answer a question concerning something I cannot see it is probably best to try one of the Facebook groups dealing with Japanese Ceramics and Arts.
