Even after Korean potters had established workshops in Japan, Japanese tea masters continued to place orders for tea bowls to be made at Korean government-sponsored kilns near Pusan. Such bowls were fabricated according to sketches or wooden models (gohon). So-called Gohon bowls echoed the styles of various 16th-century Korean bowl types, including mishima, that had become established as tea-ceremony classics, but they conformed to the revived preference for thin, well-finished wares.
