Nakamura Kimpei (b.1935) is a revolutionary ceramic potter who takes as much from his traditional upbringing in Kanazawa as he does from 1960s West Coast Pop-Funk art; his work is always innovative on some level and never boring, in fact he loves to challenge his audience and his students at the Tokyo art university where is a professor. A good article about Nakamura can be read in the Japan Times at search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/fa20060525a3.html This is a rare and important 1969 work that is ...click for details

Yamada Hikaru (1924-2001) was a founding member of the extremely influential avant-garde ceramic group Sodeisha along with Yagi Kazuo and Suzuki Osamu in the late 1940s. They brought about a sea change in Japanese ceramics, and it is not an understatement to say that many contemporary potters have been influenced in one way or another by the Sodeisha group. In their latter years the members also took to making functional wares. This kohiki-white powder slip--chawan made by Yamada dates to 1967 a ...click for details

Here is an early--circa 1970s--bluish-white porcelain-seihakuji jar by the one and only Fukami Sueharu--more about this very important Kyoto ceramic artist in our archives or at e-yakimono.net This is a rather important smaller jar as it points to Fukami's process of bringing a light edge to his works--there are four such relief lines--as well as bringing a more decorative accent to his jars as evidenced by the pointed nodes at the top of the jar. In perfect condition with a signed box, 21cm ...click for details

Mushiake pottery is a relatively obscure style fired in Okayama prefecture, the same area as Bizen. It began in the Edo period to service the tea needs of Lord Ikeda. After losing feudal patronage in the Meiji period there was a decline in the output and even stretches where there were no kilns being fired at all. Along came Okamoto Eizan (1881-1962) who along with Kuroi Ichiraku rekindled the flames and interest in Mushiake and even went so far as to start a 'mushiake boom.' From 1907 h ...click for details

Kukuri, Kani, Okaya, and Ohira are the names of places in Gifu prefecture where the classic Mino wares of the late 16th C. were fired; the greatest kiln being that of Mutabora. The relationship between Mino and the Way of Tea has basically continued on to this very day. Of course there was a lapse in the Meiji period with a great revival beginning in the 1930s. Some grand masters from that time have left their mark on the potting world, Kato Tokuro and Arakawa Toyozo being the 'gods.' Th ...click for details

There is a rich reference to the decorative arts of the Meiji period on this calm persimmon-glazed jar by Inoue Haruo(1910-1975). Inoue was a highly awarded Kyoto potter who studied with Kiyomizu RokubeVI; he entered his first exhibition in 1932. After that the list is quite long and three times his works were presented to the emperor. This jar has a noble form, fine glazing and a quaint-simple drawing of a pear on the front. In perfect condition with a signed box, 20.5cm.tallx22.3, stamped on b ...click for details
