A spectacular contemporary form by Mihara Ken enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Sekki Kaki (Un-Glazed Flower Vessel). The entire isa soft and matte gray studded with Shiseki. Ken is well known for this pastel color concept of un-presupposing grays, and this piece certainly lives up to our expectations for him.

Size, D 44.6 cm H 16.2 cm
