It is a privilege to introduce this incredible sculpture by the young female ceramicist Furui Akiko enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Tsubomi (bud) dating from 2017. It is made up of hundreds of rolled sheafs of shaved clay covered in a white slip and fused together. The amount of work which goes into each sculpture is obvious, making her work great value.

Lush Ki-seto vase with a wide array of effects and colorations within the glaze and vivid, gem-like bidoro style beads in the nooks and crannies of the form. Made by Hayashi Shotaro in the early 1990s, this vase is a classic form and surface for the potter with throwing marks and added potter's marks articulating the medieval form.
Shotaro is perhaps one of Japans true genius potters, moving far beyond tradition, glaze research and firing technique, to a place of inception...

This large and highly animated E-Shino mizusashi was made by internationally known and exhibited potter, Suzuki Goro.

Thrown quickly and thickly, the pot has areas of smooth and rough which balance the form rather well and the pot is finished with strong lugs and a large and functional knob on the lid. This mizusa...
