Set of five Yunomi by Suzuki Goro

Here is a wonderful set of five large yunomi (tea cups) made by Suzuki Goro, one of the most prolific contemporary potters, also known as a potter’s wheel prodigy. The diversity of the cups is a tribute to the colorful versatility and the limitless creativity of the master craftsman. The five cups are made in the Kuro-oribe (black oribe), oribe, yashichida oribe, narumi oribe and karatsu styles of pottery, which have been tamed by the artist and found new life in his playful world. 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 yunomi are signed, in perfect condition and will be shipped in one signed wooden box (please allow a few weeks before shipping). Dimensions: all cups 7.5 - 9 cm x 11 – 12 cm (3 – 3.6 in x 4.4 – 4.8 in) The listed price does not include shipping and a 4% processing charge. The listed price includes worldwide insured shipping. Please make sure you read my Sales Policy Page and kindly inquire if you have any question.
