Michael Marcus

Michael Marcus has been a potter for more than 35 years. He apprenticed as a potter in Japan, studying wood-fired, glazed, and unglazed wares, along with the Japanese tea ceremony and sushi cuisine. His ceramics are collected internationally and used in Japanese restaurants such as Nobu and Hatsuhana in New York City. His special passion is in harmonizing handmade tableware with food presentation, often using his own wood-fired dishes, newly born out of the kiln, to serve sushi delicacies. Proprietor and head sushi chef of Bizen Gourmet Japanese Restaurant and Bizen Kaiseki in the Berkshires, Michael has a gift for sharing his profound understanding of Japanese culture.
