We see the burnt design that's made by contrast between the goma pattern and the uncolored place.

The goma pattern is that it looks like the color by sprinkled sesame seeds produced by burning split pine wood in the kiln.

And uncolored place could be made depending on where it put in the kiln. There are some parts which fallen ash is less likely to attach, and then that's become a scene of lost color.
