Uraguchi Masayuki (b.1964) is quickly gaining momentum as *the* celadon artist to watch. Having studied under the late Living National Treasure Miura Koheiji (1933-2006), Uraguchi's works not only exhibit a sharp sense of form, his many experiments in glazes have produced new and unique celadon glazes that are authentically Uraguchi's. We may add he's the only celadon apprentice that Miura has had and acknowledged. Miruji, Kokusho, Kokuyosai are names for his original Seiji/celadon and are propelling the art of celadon into new heights. This is a stunning example of Uraguchi's art; a very tall koro-incense burner that is simply magical. Jewel-like, the glazing is thick and prismatic. The cut tall tower supports the large dish-like removable lid. In perfect condition with a signed box, 33cm.tall.
