Sold 

I am relentless in sourcing works for certain potters and one is the late great Mashiko potter Murata Gen(1904-1988). My network in Japan--built over two decades--knows this and thus works often appear out of the blue. This chawan comes from a Yokohama collection and is Ido in form and Karatsu in glazing with a strong mingei-Mashiko overall balance; Murata was a big fan of Karatsu. The overall tone is light summer green and warm Irabo browns on the body, with a neat 'fire color' tinged f ...click for details

Sold 

One of Japan's greatest potters of all time is Tsuji Seimei(b.1927). His anagama-fired works are exceptional and his forms contain pure Japanese aesthetics. He's a living legend, after Rosanjin the only potter to have a whole issue of TAIYO devoted solely to him; many potters here say "I want my pots to have spirit like Tsuji Seimei's work." More about Tsuji on e-yakimono.net. Here is a very fine Tsuji Shigaraki eared vase--the first Tsuji vase we've ever offered that d ...click for details

Sold 

A very radical jar in form and particularly the design of a butterfly and beetle set against chrysanthemums and leaves made by Kayama Tetsuya(b.1954.) Kayama is the eldest son of the famed painter Kayama Matazo and he studied in Iga with Banura Shiro after graduating from Tama Art University where he studied Japanese style painting. In 1989 he established his kiln in Oiso, Kanagawa. This is a museum piece that captures the senses on many levels. In perfect condition with a signed box, 30.2cm.tal ...click for details

Bizen Chawan by Takahara Shoji

japanesepottery.com




Sold 

Takahara Shoji(1941-2000) was one of Bizen's veteran potters who started in the early 1960s when there were only a dozen or so potters; now there are said to be about 600. He studied with Okayama Intangible Cultural Treasures Ishii Furo(1899-1964) and Isezaki Yozan(1902-1961) before establishing his own kiln in 1962. This kutsu-'shoe' form chawan dates to 1971 after he built yet another new kiln and on the kodai is written hatsu-gama or 'first kiln' to signify that special oc ...click for details

Sold 

If you are familiar with 5th-12th century sueki wares then you'll recognize a bond between those early natural-ash glazed wares and the contemporary works of Nara-based ceramic artist Tsujimura Yui(b.1975). He 'studied' under his father Shiro and the same spirit within Shiro's works is to be found in Yui's works, as well as his younger brother Kai, of whom we'll be having a large one-man exhibition next week. This is the only jar we have by Yui and it has a beautiful-time ...click for details

Tenmoku-Iron Tsubo-Jar by Sasaki Yuzuru

japanesepottery.com




Sold 

The thing about tenmoku iron-glazed wares is that they change dramatically according to the lightning. In a dark zone they take on a shadowy persona and in the light they sparkle and dazzle; that is when the potter is better than good. Sasaki is. This jar attests to that and it's shown in different lighting settings; surely a piece to spark one's imagination in a cosmic way. In perfect condition with a signed box, 23.4cm.tallx18.2, stamped on base; more about Sasaki and other previews of ...click for details
