One of the best pieces of art I have ever seen - a perfect eye-catcher in each collection, superb for displaying.

The surface is covered in a textured sea foam glaze, creating a stark contrast to the platinum glazed porcelain spikes...

A beautiful example of modern Bizen-ware—with a thick feldspar glaze partially covering the clay body allowing the natural ash glaze underneath to show through in areas. This piece along with others by the same artist tend to push the bounds of what you usually see in Bizen pottery.

An incredible piece by legendary Abe Anjin in the artists most sought after style of saishoku colors enclosed in the original signed wooden box. We see the gamut of this artists career here, red, blue, black, gold, green, Ash glaze, and raw clay. The bottle form is dimpled to make it easy to grasp, even if imbibed. Being a maker of tea ware, it is this subtle attention to shape and texure which elevates the work of Anjin.
