Elegant Shino lugged vase by veteran potter, Ando Hidetake (b. 1938). Thrown and then paddled ovoid, this simple tea ceremony vase was made of Mino mogusa clay and once stiff, the foot was hand carved to produce a fitting oval foot to compliment the form.

Double gourd form tokkuri, bottle with rich temmoku and tetsu-yu glazes. The foot is glazed and the remains of wad impressions are present on the foot, but smooth to the touch.
