This large, bold and classical Shino vase was made by Mino legend and veteran potter, Hayashi Shotaro (b. 1947). Thrown out of traditional Mino mogusa clay, the throwing is both a blend of both casual and power. The form has areas of iron decoration under the beautiful and active white Shino glaze with lots of craters and crawling characteristic of great Shino pottery. The vase is an amalgam of classic Momoyama inspired design and Shotaro's genius for modern form and pushing the edges of contemporary tradition. The pot measures 10.25" X 6.25" x 6", is in perfect condition and comes complete with its original signed box. In person this vase displays an immense presence, is much larger than the dimensions would indicate and has a noble totemic posture that very few can duplicate.
