The deep sides of this striking vase are covered in shades of lustrous orange tinged feldspar by master craftsman Kato Yasukage XIV enclosed in the original wooden box titled Shino Hanaire and signed by the 14th Generation Yasukage followed by his seal.

A charred Ash Glazed chawan by Kumano Kurouemon enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Kuma Shino and signed To Kuroemon. Like the potter himself, this bowl is large and stable, seemingly welded to the floor by its own weight and presence.
