A superbly crafted trumpeting form by legendary Tamba artist Ichino Masahiko enclosed in a wooden box. The bowl reflects the aesthetics of those imported Korean wares preferred by Sen-no-Rikyu in the Momoyama era. It has a bold, strong foot which rests perfectly on the table, both grounding the bowl and yet allowing it a sense of flight, as if the moment will soon be gone (and it will indeed!).

A jagged metallic shard in gold has embedded into the snow-bank sides of this deep shiro Hagi Chawan by Miwa Kazuhiko enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Shiroi Mau Wan (White Dancing Bowl). The sheered metallic ring gleems softly gold in the light, a stark contrast against the moon-like glow of the body. The bowl is both sculptural and functional, the best combination to express the innovative work of this contemporary potter.
