Tsuronosuke MATSUBAVASHI / MATSUBAYASHI
From a family of potters (thirty-nine generations), Matsubayashi was an engineer and kiln specialist. He re-designed and then rebuilt the Japanese climbing kiln at the Leach pottery during his stay there between 1922-24. At the 1924 Show Day at St Ives, he exhibited a study of a branch of Japanese medlars and two crabs at Lanham's Gallery. Later that year he collaborated with Katherine PLEYDELL-BOUVERIE on the setting-up of her kiln at Coleshill.
