Japanese Mingei Studio Pottery Box Fukuhara

14 cm x 6.5 x 8. 5.5" x 2.5" 3.25. Excellent condition, no damage. Beautiful Mingei Studio box, with post card that shows the show came from (a gallery at Mitsukoshi). There is no date on the piece but the post card appears to date from the 60s. The name of the potter seems to be Tatsuro Fukuhara. The Mingei movement was an artistic and also somewhat philosophical movement starting in the early twentieth century that took inspiration from the great tradition of anonymous craftsmanship of mostly Japan but also Korea, with a modern air contemporary with the cultural and artistic climate of early twentieth century Japan. This is a lovely example of Mingei Studio pottery.
