Yashichida Wan by Suzuki Goro

Artisan and Design: Ceramics: Pottery: Bowls Contemporary: item #776656

This splendid wan (bowl) is the work of Suzuki Goro, a potter recognized throughout the world for his mastery of his craft and his prolific and playful creativity. Women, as a source of inspiration, have a privileged status in Suzuki Goro’s world. The potter often uses nudes as motifs or let the clay be expressed through their forms. A bowl is a very appropriate support for an expression of this adoration, for its shape is after all a symbolic echo of the feminine figure. The Yashichida Orib... Click for details

Hagi-Shigaraki Tokkuri by Hamanaka Gesson

Artisan and Design: Ceramics Contemporary: item #775780

Hamanaka Gesson has always been an innovative Hagi potter; of course he makes very traditional Hagi wares, yet he also makes hybrid styles blending various glazes and clays. This is not altogether new in the Japanese ceramic world, dating back centuries potters made hybrid styles such as Mino-Iga. This yakishime-high-fired unglazed stoneware sake flask has a very Shigaraki look--some may even say Iga--yet the small pebbles in the clay are from a blend of Hagi clay with Shigaraki--fired in Hamana...

It is a bottle form with all edges raised petal like, calling to mind the lotus bases of Buddhist imagery. The vase is 9-3/4 inches (25 cm) tall, 5 inches (12.5 cm) diameter and in excellent condition. ... Click for details

Iga Chawan by Watanabe Aiko (b)

Artisan and Design: Ceramics: Pottery: Bowls Contemporary: item #773836

This splendid chawan (tea bowl) is the work of a relatively young and promising potter named Watanabe Aiko.

With its running of gemlike bidoro (vitrified glaze) to the kodai (foot) and its pool of emerald, th... Click for details
