A fantastic Tea Bowl by rising star Furutani Kazuya exhibited at Mitsukoshi Department Store, enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Iga Chawan. Ash-glaze blasted with fire color of foggy green and yellow shizen yu glaze, showing the secret to the Furutani family's pottery. The everted shape allows the bowl a very comfortable fit into the palm, and the wide kodai base allows it to sit stable and firm, creating a proud silhouette.
Size, D 12.6 cm H 8.9 cm
Condition, Excellent
Furutani Kazuya (b. 1976) is one of Japan’s most promising young stars. He graduated the Yamaguchi College of Art in 1997, and spent a year at the ceramics research facility in Kyoto before returning to work under his father, Furutani Michio, in Shigaraki. His Father’s sudden death in 2000 pushed Kazuya to the fore, and left him with big shoes to fill. That he has done! Building three Anagama in the following decade and displaying with the National Ceramics Exhibition and a number of private affairs in some of Japan’s top venues.
