Yashichida Chawan by Suzuki Goro

This fantastic Yashichida chawan (tea bowl) is a very rare piece, made by one of the best known contemporary potters: Suzuki Goro. The Yashichida pottery tradition, with its colorful abstract motifs is an ideal playing field for Suzuki Goro, who has brought it back to life. This particular piece shares the humble and ephemeral qualities of classic Raku vessels and the genial strokes of Ogata Kenzan’s works. Suzuki Goro is a potter who goes beyond that usual appellation. He has developed a unique way of expressing himself through ceramics, basing his work on traditional styles from the Mino tradition: Shino, Oribe, Ki-Seto (yellow Seto), Setoguro (black Seto) and the Karatsu tradition. His works, which have a strong sense of individualism, include tea bowls with colorful painted cars and life size chairs, but he is also a master of more conventional pieces. In 2002, Suzuki Goro received the very prestigious Japan Ceramic Society Prize. The chawan is signed, in perfect condition and will be shipped in a signed box. Dimensions: 14 cm x 8.5 cm (5.6 in x 3.4 in) Please inquire if you have any question.
